Serious problem - dark screen freezing
#1
Hello,

I have encountered some serious problems trying to run PCSX-2 on my mac.

My computer specifications :

Ver. 10.6.7
2,4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB RAM

I'm using PCSX-2 ver 0.9.6 with Bios SCPH-70004 which is being recognised by PCSX-2 as EUROPE v02.00

The problem is, when I'm starting, the window where the game should appear, I can see only black screen, and FPS counter freezes. This is what I can read in PCSX-2 console:

F1 - save state
(Shift +) F2 - cycle states
F3 - load state

And here I have this blank screen and emulation freezes.

I have also done everything what is written here:

http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-For-every...-PCSX2-Mac

I'm not an experienced OSX user, so I'm not sure if every step I made gave a positive result. For example, I'm not sure if I succeeded with enabling the root account ?

Further more, I was thinking that I did something wrong with the bios ( but it's being recognised by the program) so I have downloaded some bios form net.

But it occured that it won't work :

***A crapload of text above this point***
* PCSX2 *: ExecuteBios
Offset 0xea000000 invalid. Legit SIGSEGV. Aborting.
pcsx2.sh: line 2: XXXXX Bus error ./pcsx2

Where XXXXX where different, when the BIOS was changed (or maybe didn't observe this well enough)

So I understood THIS clearly:
Okay, you need to go and rip the BIOS from YOUR OWN Playstation 2

What can I do to make it run on my bios SCPH-70004?

Best regards, Pawel.
