    I'm sure not many have any idea what you're talking about. We need to know a few things first:

    * What emulator is it? (Name and version)
    * What game are you having problems with?
    * Is the game played from an original CD/DVD or is it some kind of ISO file?
    * What are your computer specs?

    Ok, first of all Don't post links to roms and back-ups of games. That is against the forum rules. (If you still can edit your post I suggest you remove it!)

    Second, read the forum rules just to be on the safe side in the future.

    Third, now I understand my confusion even better since you posted this in the Sony emulation forum.

    As for your problem, the roms could be corrupted. Otherwise I'm not too sure. You can find out some of your computer's specs by right-clicking on "My Computer" icon and selecting 'Properties'.

    Sorry can't do that because I don't get my games from regular sites.

    He does however have an ICQ. And I have an AIM: brajan4558. That should be enough.

    Arranging to exchange roms on the boards is no different from posting links to romsites on the boards.

    Don't do it. It breaches the AUP.

    Off-topic: I recall seeing that avatar somewhere. Do you have an iPod?

    May be the problem is with the rom, you should recheck that.
