Sword of the Samurai Internal Resolution not working

[BigBozz]

Hello,
So i am using pcsx2 now for years and never had any strange problems like that..
I got a new laptop (really nice, now i can play up to 5-8x in native) but since then i a have problem.
I had Windows 8 but now i have Windows 10. 

And games like Def Jam working like a charm in higher resolution (8x). 
But this game does not taking the internal resolution, Its like playing it on native.
If i wanted to play like that i would play on my real ps2 slim.

[BigBozz]

Yes, i have the fat one too.
But how this is important?

[jesalvein]

[BigBozz]

The slim is a pal and the fat are jap. But i dont know the which model the 2 ps2s are somewhere at the cellar.

[jesalvein]

dump the bios of your slim one and use it instead of your jap one

[BigBozz]

Okay, i tried with the pal bios.
Same Issue. Really strange.

[jesalvein]
