      @bobharris just rename the bios’ like this in all CAPS including the .BIN. The bios’ might be named completely different but with the numbers that they need to be renamed with:

      SCPH1001.BIN
      SCPH750.BIN

      And so forth and so on....

        @bobharris if you have the multiple bios it should pick the correct one.

            @sent1 when you say it doesn't work, what do you mean? the game doesn't appear in the menu? it doesn't load? what?

                    @sent1 are your roms .bin/.cue, .iso/.cue or .pbp? If iso or bin open up the cue file and make sure it is named exactly like the .bin or .iso this includes all caps and lowercase. If the bin is say RESIDENT EVIL.BIN inside the cue file it cannot say RESIDENT EVIL.bin or resident evil.BIN. Has to all match exact.

                      This^. Also, as far as games go, I think it's easiest is to just use .pbp files, they drop right in and should work out of the box, so to speak.

                          @sent1 Try to obtain a .pbp file for the game. Sometimes the compression can cause issues if you do it yourself. If you look online for PSX to PSP iso you should get what you need.

                            I've never had any sort of luck converting TO .pbp myself, fwiw. I think if you can get the proper file right out of the gate, you're much better off
