Your specs are well below the minimum requirements for PJ64, and N64 emulation in general.
Never the less, your current problem is probably attributed to a lack of DX7 and/or DX7 drivers for your video card. PJ64 v1.4 (and presumably v1.5) includes a DX6 port of Jabo's video plugin. Use that, or get the latest DX and compatible drivers.

Have you tried the DX6 plugin anyway? If that doesn't work you could try using the video plugin from v1.3. At least you'll be able to narrow down the problem to either the plugin or the core.

dude upgrade your ram. ram is dirt cheap now. $40 for 256mb of ddr pc2100, and thats really good. but since you prolly dont have a mobo that can have ddr supported, get sdram than. upgrade your video card to at least a voodoo3 3000. cause a plugin that is called glide64 can run pretty well even on your specs besides the ram. so here is what you sohuld upgrade starting from importance...
ram: 32mb --> 128mb (at least) 256mb at the most
video card: ATI Rage Pro Turbo 4MB --> Voodoo 3 3000 PCI (or AGP) at the least. try to get a gf2 at the least for an upgrade like that. a geforce 3 is $100 now.The only forum I have more than 1,000 posts on! weeeeeeee bleep.

Don't go for Voodoo3. If you're getting a voodoo (which i don't recommend), go for at least 4. Preferly 5.Originally posted by gokuss4

Otherwise, get yourself a GeForce. They're cheap and good.Atashi wa juu-yon-sai no onna no ko! Atashi no namae wa Miizuki. Yurushiku ne!
