    Hey guys, I have a problem when running Final Fantasy IX with my PSX emulator (ePSXe 1.7.0)

    Here's the problem. Usually when you enter a battle, you enter a transition of sort before the battle begins. When I enter the first battle, I received a popup message saying that my graphic card crashed or something and the FFIX still runs in the background (there is sound) but the window appears black and everything else appears at a lower resolution and color.

    Do I still need to explain more about this? Help please :p

    for a start use ePSXe 1.5.2, as this works better with squaresoft games. Secondly, what graphics plugin are you using, what graphics card do you have and are the drivers up to date?

    try settings the plugin to fast...then change the resolution to your desktop settings ,collor settings to nice, and framerate to 60....and maybe use the special games fixes.....for ff9

    don't set the plugin options to fast; Final Fantasy will only work properly if they are set to 'nice'

    Yeah, it could probably be my graphic card that can't handle the "transition" for battle as you said :(

    I'll try the "fast" setting first and see what it happens. I'll post the plugins I use another time, as I'm on another computer and I forgot what plugins I downloaded :p
