Title: psx emulator on dell laptop
Post by: Barren on April 28, 2010, 03:46:37 pm
hey guys whats going on? A lot of times when I play my psx emulator (ePSXe 1.7.0) on my laptop (dell latitude D531 w/ 896 MB of RAM and 75 GB of Hard disk space, Windows XP SP 3, Mobile AMD Sempron, Processor 3600+) it would lag on me. I even checked task manager and my psx emulator takes up memory gradually and increases page file usage as well as CPU resource usage. If anyone can tell me what I need to make my emulator run faster on my laptop, that would be really nice. thanks

Downgrade to ePSXe 1.6.0 and use Pete's DX6 D3D Driver 1.76 graphics plugin. That's how I got it to run smoothly on my older desktop with XP.

whenever I tried playing the psx 1.6 version, the frame skipping is way to fast and I when I play fft 1.3 on ePSXe 1.6, the circle, square, triangle and X buttons are disabled for some odd reason, you think you can help me with that?

Do those buttons normally work for other games?  Just reconfigure your emulator to have those buttons correspond to the keys you want.
