does it have somthin to do whit the place?

Easy now. You won't get help faster by shouting about it and bumping the thread.

In answer to your question: No, it doesn't matter where you put the emulator. epsxe folder is ok. The problem is the file extension on your game. Do they all end with DT2? That's not an extension I recognize and googling it turns up something about raster information files which I don't think is what you have.

Read my posts more closely!

I asked: Do they all end with DT2? That means your games.

Oh no... I think I just found the answer. Check to see how big the "game file" is? Shouldn't be more than 100kb right? That's not games. That's configuration files for the Delta frontend. My guess is you have no games then, so until you do you won't be able to play. Sorry.

forgot to say, when i open a ganme on the emulator it says no wgl ezxtentions

[sir juoelvis]

oh thats true, well i just downloaded a rom and i put it there and the same thing happend

As retroguiden said what you've downloaded is the ePSXe with the Delta Front-End, you don't actually have any game files to load in the first place.

You best bet would be to download the latest version (1.7) of ePSXe from this site. Don't bother with Delta as its a waste of time and only duplicates what ePSXe does anyway.

Next you will need a PS1 bios rom. We can't link to one here as it breaches the forum rules so you will need to find one yourself. The most common one is called scph1001. This is the Playstations operating system and the emulator won't work without it.
Once you've got the necessary bios you need to source PS1 games in ISO format. These are disk images and will typically be a few hundred Megabytes in size or you can rip your original PS1 disks yourself.

explain calmly please im not much of good in fixin with emulators so i got the bios u said already, ewhat do i du?
whats wgl?
thx for the attention

Ok firstly it doesn't look like you have any game files, just emultor setup files for the games but not the games themselves.

wgl will be referring to your videocard or settings. What spec is the PC you are trying to run it on?, i.e Processor, Videocard, Ram, and operating system.
