Hello,
So I'm having some problems with PCSX2. I'm not sure what's going on as I just downloaded and configured everything. Before I go any further, here are my system specs:
Operating System: Windows XP Professional SP3
Processor: AMD Athlon-64 X2 5600+ Dual Core (2.79 GHz)
Memory: 4 GB of DDR2-800
Video Card: Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT 512 MB
Sound Card: Creative Labs Sound Blaster Audigy 2
So here is what I've gathered so far: my processor is capable of SSE2 but not SSE3. Therefore, I've been using the following graphics plugin with these options:
GSdx 890 (MSVC 15.00, SSE2) 0.1.14
Resolution: Windowed
Renderer: Direct3D9 (Hardware)
Shader: Pixel Shader 3.0
Interlacing (F5): None
Aspect Ratio: 16:9
D3D Internal Res: 1024x1024 (Native is not checked)
SW rend. threads: 1 (it's greyed out)
NLOOP hack is greyed out-checked, and texture filtering and alpha correction are checked as well.
My sound plugin is SPU2-X 1.1.0. Everything there is on default settings. And lastly, I am using USA v02.00(14/06/2004) Console as my BIOS. The four check marks are checked on the left of the CPU config and I am using the "Limit" option as well. All Speed hacks are off and it's at the default cycle rate.
I'm trying to run the original Metal Gear Solid. I have a .bin which I converted to a .iso. Unfortunately, neither work. Every time it just shows the "Sony Computer Entertainment" with all of the floating boxes and whatnot. After that it's just a black screen with nothing happening. I'm not sure what's happening. Any help is greatly appreciated. Sorry that this post was so long.
Thanks,
Wolf
