I have a quick question........i am trying to run this Emulator but i keep getting this error.......
PCSX2.EXE has encountered a problem and must close.
im new to this p[articular emulator, my specs are....
AMD Athlon xp 3200+
2gb DDR Memory
Geforce 6200 AGP 512 Megabytes of DDR2
(supports Pixel Shaders 3.0)

I can run all types of other emulators but i have problems with this one.

Unfortunatelly your PC doesnt have the required features to run PCSX2 (SSE2 in the CPU) so even if you got it working you wouldnt be able to play anything good enough (it probably wont even start anyway), sorry but upgrade is the only way unless you want to try a very old version of the emulator running at very slow speed in which case we cant help you here.

Thanks for your help, is there any particular motherboard and processor that i should look at getting? If its kool with you guys, im asking for a processor for minimum requirements AND one with Recomended requirements. Also, a proper motherboard that will hold these processors...........maybe something that wouldnt cost too much and still be able to run this emulator properly.
Thanks alot.
