I've obtained an image file for Vib Ribbon on PS1, however, it doesn't work properly. Title screen and such appear as they should, but once I start a new game it loads for a while and then hangs. Also, if there is supposed to be music during the "how to play" part, I'm not hearing any. I suspect the problem might be solved by burning the image to CD, but I don't want to unnecessarily waste a CD-R. Any insights on what's wrong and how to solve it?

Try using SCPH7502.BIN as your Bios as it is the Specific Bois for PAL games. See if that helps the problem.

Could be a few things... Where did you obtain this IMG file from... If you did not rip it yourself its likely there is a corruption in it... Also you might wanna try using an older or newer version of ePSXe.
