Hey, I got my ePSXe up.

I use all the latest Pete plugins and a SCPH.1001.

A few months back before, I played Star Ocean 2 on my emulator perfectly nothing was wrong.

Sadly, now when I play games, like the only to games I have downloaded, are dragon warrior VII (i own it put its so old and scratched up it won't read anymore) and Chrono Trigger (same aswell) it messed up like when I start them it takes a little for them to load up then the color is a little gray-ish and sometime the screen starts vibrating lilte not across the screen but a small shake but it does it violently.

Then the games run SUPER slow and it takes forever to load up the next screen. Also it kinda stretches off myt computer like it cuts off the sides of the emulation.

Whats the problem? And if you need more info tell me what I need to supply and I'll give it. Thanks for any and all help!

A screen shot of how your graphics plug in is set up will help.

Alright I will try to get that ASAP, the problem is I dont have paint on my computer anymore, I accidently deleted it and cant find another download thats free. I will however try to re download Paint.net n do this. So a screenshot of my graphs setup in the Wizard guide or just open the ePSXe and click on graphic plugins and take a screen of that?
