pSX on windows 7 64 bit?

[nitwit]

Has anyone got this emulator to work on this OS?  I get errors.

Failed to find a valid mode.  Perhaps switch your desktop to 32 bit mode?

The instructions here don't work.

[3lric]

Which version? I have Win7 Ultimate 64bit on all the PCs in my house and they
all run pSX 1.13 (aka pSXFin) without any issue or configuration.

[Angel]

I can vouch. 4 computers with W7 x64 here, all of them run pSX fine with no errors or compatibility modes checked. Download, run, play, no configuration needed.

[Xifanie]

Control Panel / Display / Screen Resolution > Advanced Settings (not very obvious to locate)
Monitor tab
Colours: switch to 32bit

That should solve your issue. If you can't select 32bit, I think 16bit works too? 24bit won't IIRC.

I was already set to 32bit.  Tried 16bit, that didn't work either.

Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit.  I use pSXfin.exe too.  Got the 1001 bios.

Noticed another error message after the one I documented in my first post.

Failed to initialise D3D device

http://forums.firefallthegame.com/community/threads/failed-to-initialize-d3d-9-device.47271/

Saw this.  Doing the dxdiag thing to see if this is a driver issue.

Bam.

Does anyone have d3d2_6.dll?  I can't find it

Tried this, didn't work.

[Angel]

You can't find it because there's no such thing. The guy didn't even know the name of the .dll file. Though your last link not working is a mystery. What sort of hardware do you have?

Absurdly overpowered.

I hear epsxe is a good emulator.  Thoughts?

I hear epsxe is a good emulator.  Thoughts?

It isn't the best but it runs FFT without anything terrible happening. If this emu is giving you that much trouble you may as well download a few others and see what works best.

[nitwit]

I can't get epsxe or pcsx-r to work.  Guess I'm done with emulation.

[Angel]

As an aside, that isn't absurdly overpowered; it's about on par with my 7 year old laptop, just with double the RAM and DX11 support. That said, you definitely shouldn't have any trouble running any of the above emulators. I have a similar quad core AMD APU (albeit slower) in another laptop, with the same OS, that has no trouble at all with pSX. It doesn't like ePSXe, but neither do I, so nothing lost. Didn't give me any trouble with pcsx-r or psxjin, though.

From your paste, I'm not seeing any Catalyst processes or drivers installed. Do you have the latest Catalyst Control Center and drivers for the APU?

[Ram]

You could also try some older emulators if you have no luck with some current ones such as VGS (Virtual Game Station PS1 Emulator). I used that on my old machine and had no problems with it for FFT. You can't customize it or toggle many options like quality levels.

[Angel]

While I admit I haven't tried since, I do remember not being able to run VGS in Vista x64. I found it was still sitting in my emulators folder after nearly a decade and wanted to revisit it for old time's sake, only to be thwarted.

I don't think I've tried Bleem! since leaving Windows 98, but FFT was fairly playable on it, iirc.

Googled Catalyst Control Center, did the auto-detect installer, now pSX works.  Thank you!

[Angel]

Hooray! I'm glad it works now
