    for PSX, PS2, N64, GameCube, DS, what else? Arcade?

    Thanks.

    I am currently playing through final fantasy x on pcsx2 and outside of 1 area its run at max fps. All of this has been on the 257.30 drivers, it ran faster on the 258.96(i think this is the number), but it stills runs really good without having to do much to the graphics.

    PSX - ePSXe seems to be the best for me.
    GBA - VisualBoyAdvance is by far the best I've tried.
    SNES - ZSNES works great.

    I've searched over and over the threads looking for an answer to this problem, I can run, for example devil may cry 4 with no problem on the m11x r2 but for some reason that escapes me I can't make the nvidia gpu work with epsxe (a psx emulator). I've put it in the whitelist as mentioned in other thread, run with dedicated graphics in the right click menu, ran it in windows xp sp2 compatibility and even ran it as administrator, can't figure out other options, and the saddest thing is that other users can use it without problem my drivers are 258.96 with the modded inf from kopicha, can anyone help me? :(
