games were loading and now they aren't
#1
Okay so, I am sure it is painfully obvious, I am not super tech savvy, but I get by.

Here's my problem: I WAS running PCSX2 perfectly fine about a week ago, I tested it on running off a disc and then running off an ISO, everything was going fine.

But now, when I go to start up a game, the new window pops up and it's just blank, solid black.

I tried everything I could find around the forums, gave up and uninstalled then reinstalled.

-installed the bios, installed with the default/automatic settings
-open up the program
-go to CDVD
-select plugin
-go to plugin menu
-select plugin settings
-select the drive my PS2 disc is in
-select boot CDVD (fast)
~a new window pops up, and instead of playing the game, it's just black, and never loads


If anyone can do anything to help I would REALLY appreciate it. I've frustrated myself trying to figure it out. I'm not really good with jargon, but I can follow directions really well? haha.

Can you show the emulog.txt file after the black screen? it can be found in either PCSX2>logs, or MyDocuments>PCSX2>Logs. Its location depends on if you're using an SVN/GIT/Portable version, or the installer version.

I'm sorry about that - that is when I tried to open an iso file, and for that I did change it under the CDVD menu, they both get the same response (black screen)

In the emulog is no hint about loading a dvd or an iso. Can you please try to relaunch a game and past the emulog afterwards. Everytime you run pcsx2 the emulog is overwritten

If nothing else work,you could try reconfiguring pcsx2 again(Misc=>Clear all settings).

What could result in black screen(by changing pcsx2 settings)is
1.Config=>Emulation Settings=>GS
A)Disable all GS output
B)Using too high frame skipping

2.From the GSdx settings=>any of the Null modes in Renderer

Did you try just for a test another GSdx version(SSE4,SSS3,SSE2)
