      Hi,

      Just started joining the forum. I'm having difficulty having answers from the Discord Channel, I figured it's best to ask it here instead.

      Here is my problem with my setup. I have a 2007 PC running Recalbox x86 version.

      I have good gameplay running previous generation systems, up to Nintendo64. Unfortunately only the PSX emulation I'm having issues with.

      I have done the following:

      • secured the required BIOS set.
      • re-aquired a clean copy from a reliable source.
      • tested Bin & Cue format and it fails
      • converted to eboot, it still fails

      This 2007 machine can run PSX easily with windowsXP installed with ePSXe with no issues. On Recalbox I can't seem to have it working at all.

      All games will try to boot, and displays and error code after:

      It appears your game didn't start at all!

      A couple of things could cause this:

      • Bad ROM
      • Missing/bad mandatory BIOS files
      • Missing/bad optional BIOS files (but required for this game)

      Thanks to anyone able to help me out with this.

        Hi o/
        Is it a 32bit cpu ?
        Can you try the 64bit image if not ?

          Hi, thanks for noticing my post. The CPU it has is capable with 64bit windows, but I can only have x86 to work on it. I have tried the x64, but just before installation can start or even load a live session; it halts with continues error that I can't understand.

          I'm now able to use the x86, does this mean PSX is not supported for the x86 setup?

            @infiltraitor did you try to change the default emulator / core ?

              To be honest, I dont know how to do that. I was actually in the process of doing it. Both for PSX and SNES if possible.
