Please help me. is there solve of this problem?

The compatibility list shows that game as not working with the stable and seems you're using the beta already so there's probably not much you can do about it. Try without speedhacks I guess... just BTW you're using very aggressive speedhacks, they will cause problems in a lot of games like that.

I borrowed this off a friend to test and I'm not faring any better. It has the GSdx cached texture bug that causes large memory usage in Hardware rendering modes but regardless of what rendering mode I use it never makes it as far as the menu.

PCSX2 stops responding after a loading bar and the last line in the console output is "!@#$", but this doesn't get saved to the log for some reason.

Update: ZeroGS gets as far as the menu, but then becomes too unresponsive to progress further. Memory usage is well over 1GB.

This would suggest it's a combination of Core and GS bugs causing the issue, so it might be a while before it's fixed.

There is way to run Hitman Contracts and Hitman Blood Money. I have GT9600 and Core 2 Dure E7500. Some missions have 30-35 (Beldingford Minor, Bjarkhov Bomb, Deadly Cargo, Flan Line, Amendment 25, You better watch out) FPS which depends on locations. I cant record a video because fraps reduce fps to 30.
