This is my first post here, and it's for help(I apologize). Well anyways, not that long ago I decided to play an old game I've been wanting to play for the longest. Fire Pro D. It's a wrestling game made by Spike. The series is said to be the best wrestling games out there; and I did have some experience with the somewhat more recent game on the GBA(played on an emulator).
So anyway I download Chankast, get the bios, and that such. I had trouble with it for a day or two until I realized that I needed to mount an image. Now I already had the game file under .mds and .mdf and I was told to download daemontools. I was fine with that so I downloaded it, and mounted the image. Now I brought up the Chankast emulator and started playing. 5 minutes into the match everything stops. The screen goes black and then returns to a blue screen. Fuck. I thought, it's not going to happen again and so once it rebooted I went to play again. Fuck.
Same thing happened. The BSOD pissed me off big time, as it continously interrupted me even when Chankast wasn't even up. Pissed off my brothers as well. So a couple days later it began to stop with the BSODs. Not often would it pop up but then one day I decided to stop messing with the computer and I suppose my brother got on for a bit and completely solved the problem. I haven't seen one BSOD since. He told me that it was because of bad RAM and then rambled on about how much it costs and that I can't afford it. At least not yet anyways. So weeks later, my desire to give FPD attempt once again lived again. Although I'm not sure what will come out of this.
But then I found this forum and decided to share my experience. So, you guys probably have more experience then I do with Chankast and other emulators. Can you give your opinions on my problem? Something wrong with the computer? Share some experiences and what not? Anyone?
