Pcsx2 Problem

[StriFe]

Trust me the i920 has only 4 cores. The i7 985 is Intels first Octocore but besides that, what u said about the gpu info, you're probably right, since I don't have any knowledge off mac, but it seems to be a some sort of VMWare or any Virtual Server.

man seriously google number of i7 920 logical cores and you will find out its 4 physical and 8 logical, cpuz tells me that also, and pcsx2.

i ran the direct x diagnostic tool and got
Operating system- Windows 7 64b (6.1 build 7600)
system model- parallels virual platform
processor- intel® core™ I7 CPU M 620 @ 2.67 Ghz,~2.7 Ghz
memory- 1024mb ram---------------------(My mac actually has 8Gb of ram)
direct x version- DirectX 11

so if i wanted to change my my GPU @VDGamer
what would i do or is there another solution?

im sure theres someway to play pcsx2 through a virtual machine on mac

Dude lets try this in a simpler way ahem..........
What graphics card are using my dear?

[Death767]

8X DL "SuperDrive", and dual graphics processors -- a NVIDIA GeForce GT 330M with 512 MB of dedicated GDDR3 memory and Intel HD Graphics with 256 MB of RAM shared with the system -- that Mac OS X automatically switches between for better graphics performance and better battery life, respectively, depending on application use.

this is what i found online with the specs given about my macbook's graphics card

if there is an easier way to check than going online plz let me know.

Download program cpuz its free and its will give u correct and very detailed specs about your cpu gpu and ram, than post the specs here, then it will be much easier to pinpoint your problem, maybe your mac os x just doesnt want to switch to dedicated gpu while running pcsx2, just like crossfire wont kick on for me for pcsx2 like it does for any pc game, and if thats the case that would be your problem because you cant run pcsx2 on intel integrated gpu, you need at least dedicated 512mb gpu.

I used CPU-Z and went to the graphics tab and it says Parallels Display Adapter (WDDM) The memory is 256 mb

that looks like a problem to me

Also when I first created the desktop I was able to configure its hard drive space

Do you think anything in there would help ?

it really looks like you try to run it in a virtual server and that the program doesn't recognize your graphics card and just put it as a std card
