What PS2 emulator works best on Vista?

PCSX2 (requires PS2 bios) - It's the ONLY one and does work with Vista though the multicore processor MGU is not working as expected. Also, it's an emulator, so don't expect too much out of it.

Quad Core QX6750 @ 3.2 with 4GB 950mhz RAM at 4-4-4-12

Does it come with PS2 Bios? or is that something I have to find on my own?

The only legal way to get PS2 Bios is to dump them from your PS2 yourself. Providing a link to Bios is illegal.

Well I got Bios for it so the point is moot now.

Although I should probably get one of those 360 controllers for PC, Playstation controllers are too hard to map to a keyboard to get it to work right.

EDIT: And I think a PS2 emulator should work just fine on my new PC

You'll probably struggle to get a playable framerate on that PC unless PCSX2 has had some major optimisation since the last time I tried it.

It really needs a fast Dual Core processor and a reasonably good dedicated graphics card.

Get BIOS and put it in there.


So I won't have a chance at running something like God of War or Kamen Rider Kabuto?

Well is there some way to get PS2 (slim version) to run burnt games without a Mod Chip?
