Hello, i'm having a problem getting this SNES emulator to boot. I placed the proper files and whatnot where they need to go (snes9xTYL and snes9xTYL% in the X:/PSP/GAME folder) and put Chrono Trigger in the ROMS folder. However, when I go to boot up the program from the GAME list, I click on the snes9x icon, and it goes into the PSP chime-screen. But, the screen goes black, the back-light fades in and out, and it just hangs their on a black screen. I am running firmware 1.50, before anyone asks. And yes, I extracted the correct 1.5 files from snes9xTYL. Can anyone help me?

I used to have the same exact problem, but after reinstalling my cfw a few times, it started to work.

Use custom firmware, and run the 1.0 eboot.

Yeah i'm totaly dumbfounded as to why it won't work. I'll have to get a bigger card than install custom firmware 3.40 OE-A. As it stands, I only have this Sony 32mb card. >_<

Sorry to double post.. but I had an idea. Does it make a difference if I plug in my memory card directly into the computer? As opposed to my PSP running through the USB cable than transfer the files (USB connection mode).

Upgrading to 3.40 OE-A right now. Will update in a bit here.

EDIT: Just tried it... ARGH! Didn't work! What on earth is wrong with my PSP? :(

Sorry, I don't believe there is currently anyway to downgrade or run homebrew apps on firmware 3.50.

YESS! Got it working. Just as I thought... since the analog stick wasn't working, it wouldn't boot properly. But I fixed the analog stick and it WORKED!

what do you mean the analog stick wasnt working...I dont know if this has anything to do with what you were saying but my analog stick is slow when you move it down or left? How did you fix it?

Well, there is a rubber contact underneath the analong stick which connects it to the mainboard. This rubber piece was simply not in place and therefore, I had no analog stick. However when I put it back in, the emulator worked like a charm. Also, there is a big huge mondo guide for fixing analog sticks you should look at.

I'm on custom firmware 3.8 I believe, and am having the exact same issue. It boots the playstation screen, pauses, then shuts off. Is 3.8 too far up?

Use the latest SNES emulator :) (Its one by Chilly Willy's gang of little fairies)

or if you are using a fat, install 1.50 kernel.
