Sorted it. It was me being stupid and not reading the settings properly, i was changing the frame rate without setting that i wanted a limit to be put on the frame rate. However i think i overshot it, everyhing went very slow. Made it perfect by when chance propellerhead came on and started playing the matrix soundtrack.
Rock on Neo-serge!

I think, if I'm not mistaken, the speed issue can also relate to your drive. See if there's an option to limit the speed at which your drive reads the discs. I'm sure BLEEM had a feature like that - which worked.

Failing that, just acquire the PC version. It's inferior, especially the soundtrack, but it's much easier to get working than having to battle with emulators. I'm sure P2P or Torrent places have it somewhere.

Works like a treat, only thing is i cant get it to slow down, its not much of a problem at the moment. Its just serge from army men 3d looks like he's on speed hehehe, ive tried putting the frame rate down, it was on 200 i put it down to 10 and theres no notable difference.
It is very funny though...

Bah, neither can my mate. Keep messing with the settings is all i can advise. Let me just check which plugins i'm using and you can work from there. The only one you'll need to change is the video one probably.

Video - Pete's D3D Driver 1.75
Sound - ePSXe SPU core 1.5.2.
CD - ePSXe CDR WNT/W2K core 1.5.2.

Gogogo!

Got out of the city on FF7. Apparantly been playing on it over 6Hours, but thats cus the game is playing faster than it should. Might lower it to 60 or 70 FPS, should give me more decision time in battles.

Right got one fully working.

From [URL]http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Battlefield/9176/psxutil.html[/URL] you need the BIOS file - SCPH1001.

From [URL]http://www.aldostools.com/psxemus.html[/URL] you need to download the first two files from ePSXe.

Download: ePSXe 1.6.0 + ePSXeCutor 1.0.63 pack (488KB)
Download: Plugins Pack 4 MB (+90 plugins included)


Thats everything. Extract all files. Move the file in the first zip into the BIOS directory in the main ePSXe folder. Next run the self extractor on the Plugins pack and extract into the PLUGINS directory in the ePSXe folder. Thats everything. Next run the auto-config and everything should be set up. Click 'Nice' on the GFX settings. My advice is to set a low FPS rate. The default is no limit, so everything runs overly fast. Mine is set at 100 atm, but whilst playing FF7 the counter was running slightly fast. But i guess its a bit hit and miss with every game. Enjoy, before this gets deleted by those pesky mods!

Disclaimer: You can only download the BIOS file if you actually own a PS1
