rip psx games

ok i just broke my ff8 disc 1
i want to rip all my original games so it doesnt happen again
whats the best free program to do this?
and is there a tutorial for it?

 

I think I remember someone use Alcohol 120%, or maybe Daemon Tools can be used for it.

 

ive tried alcohol and imgburn and poweriso but ff8 and ff9 will not play on an emulator

 

I'm sure Alcohol 120% has an option for PS1 games (Remember, you're not ripping it to ISO) it must be your disc or you didn't do it right.

 

i set it to playstation so it should have worked.
googling tells me it may need a patch because its protected and PAL?

epsxe wont work on windows 7 because it needs aspi which isnt compatible so im stuck with psx1.13
for some reason epsxe just crashes on my xp partition, 1.5.2, 1.6 and 1.7

 

My ePSXe 1.7.0 works fine on my Windows 7 though.
Maybe the emulator doesn't have the right configuration ?

 

ImgBurn works just fine with making ISOs for PSX and PS2.

Just download/install it and run Make Img From Disc option.

it says: the program cant start because WNASPI32.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem

 

This error comes out whenever I try to configure my ePSXe, but the program still works and I can still configure my Plugins.

 

i got it to work but it just closes when i try to pick the iso

 

So you're saying that when you choose File -> Run ISO, the program close.

Might be some setting error, have you tried looking the ePSXe tutorial ?

Oh, I forgot about that.
Yeah, PAL games have protection on them.
