    I'm trying to play some games on my ePSXe, with Pete's OpenGL2 driver 2.09 and Eternal SPU Plugin v.1.41 with my graphics integrated motherboard(Radeon X1250). I keep on getting an error like "No Buffering available" and it wont play the video. Sound comes out yet no video. Please help!

    Mess around with the video configuration settings or use another Pete's plugin.

    try pete's DX7 or opengl drivers. Make sure you use the 'nice' settings and check the fixes section of the config. Also set the frame limiter to 35fps. I would also suggest lowering the resolution to 800x600 as that is native TV resolution (well close to) and the images might look a bit stretched on 1024x768

    Choose a different Audio plugin, such as Eternal SPU.

    Well I thought about it, an it turned out to be the framerate. I still had it at 35, so I hit the Nice setting!

    Thank you for helping me! ;D
