Ok, I've downloaded the latest ePSXe v1.4, and Daemon's Tools v2.74 and installed them on my Win2k Pro (no service pk).


Now the problem is, everytime I try to run the cdrom/run the bios, the program reboots my system.

The thing is, I have another version of ePSXe (v1.01) and Daemon's Tools (v2.41) on my Win98 (I have a dual boot system) that works perfectly well! I adopted the same configurations for the new ePSXe version and it doesn't work (as in the problem mentioned above).

Next, I tried to run the ePSXe v1.4 in my Win98. Bios is ok, but when I run the CDRom, no image comes out, just a black screen. Its the same when I disable Daemon Tools and use my CDRom to run...

It could not have been the problem of DTools becos my Windows Explorer detects the drive's contents when I mounted the image.

Any ideas?

This is one of those silly questions, but I have to ask...
In win98 in ePSXe1.4 did you select your CD rom drive in both the CDplugin and in the config window. It must be the same in both places.

well of cos I did. if not, I wouldn't have been abled to configure my v1.01 b4. (although last time I did forgot to.

Anyway, something must be wrong, cos I tried to run my v1.01 ePSXe version, it also rebooted my Win2k, which I clearly remembered a few mths back it could still run........

darn..

What CDR plugin are you using? I had the same problem as you when using Daemon Tools. The problem was only solved when I tried TSG MSCDEX plugin. Of course it was a long ime ago, so newer plugins might have corrected this. Have you tried Force ASPI? maybe it will help too. If you are using Pete's CDR plugin, Tr enabling "Don't wait til drive is ready". It may solve the black screen thing(just like in my computer), but can also crash your PC.
