#1
Hi guys. All of a sudden without any changes to the system what so ever i now get this error when starting up any ps2 game

"Thread creation error. An unspecified error occurred while trying to create the EE core thread"

It also says "The MTGS thread has become unresponsive while waiting for the GS plugin to open. Press OK to go to the plugin config panel"

Im in a real pickle with this as i need to fix it by monday. Does anyone have any clues?..  thanks so much

Your specs should be no problem running it. Try to perform updates on your GPU, windows OS etc.

Can i ask a question please - Lets say i had a physical problem with say my 2400g Chip - would problems show up on ALL emulators? i.e: PS1, n64 all arcade, PSP etc they all work perfectly well. I assume if it was a hardware (Ram / CPU / mobo) problem then it should effect everything and not just PCSX2?
