Do you rip the games from your computer? If so tell me what program you are using, and check to see if the disc is scratched up. Because I ripped FF9 and converted it to .pbp it ran just fine.
But if you just got it off some cheesey download then that's also another possibility.
As for Legend of Legaia, I had no trouble with it. I'll try to help if I can.
