Please help! Need a good PS1 Emulator.

Hi. I need some help, and, well, this was the forums of where I downloaded the emulator to start this whole problem in the first place, so I thought it'd be a good place to ask.

Alright. So, a little while ago I bought a copy off Final Fantasy 9. I dusted off my playstation and tried to play, only to find my controller was broken. So, I fired up my computer and decided to find a good emulator for it (I had one I had used before, ((PSXE? I think it was.)) that worked well with it, but doesn't work on ym new computer because of...Something. I dunno.

Anyways, I was using EPSXE for awhile, it was confusing at first (eh.) but I finally got all of the BIOS and Video Drivers and all that sorted out to where the game was working perfectly...Untill I got to one cutscene. The game would freeze every time I went to that cutscene, no matter how many things I changed around ingame, and in the emulator.

Obviously I thought well...This is just because it was a used game! It's probably scratched. So I returned it, and got a brand new copy of the game from online.

But now, I try it again, and EPSXE still freezes it at that point! I don't know what it is.

So I guess the whole point of this post is to ask, is there any emulator I can use to run FF9 from start to finish? That works? Thanks.

Try an older version (ePSXe 1.5.2). It always work for me when things like that happen.

Okay, thanks! I'll try that.

Wait! Oop. Uhh, where do I get that from? Eh heh. This site seems to only have 1.6, 1.063 and...Delta 2? Eh...Sorry.

This is a known issue with ePSXe 1.6.0 and FF9 (and I think some other FFs as well). The only present solution is to use 1.5.2 as stated above.
