      Have you verified that the BIOS file is correct ? The checksums for a correct BIOS file (SCPH1001.bin) are listed in the Playstation 1 page.

        @mitu Yes, the 1001 file was working before I added the 1000 file

          That's strange, since pcsx_rearmed doesn't support the scph1000 BIOS. Are you sure you didn't modify any core options - like enabling the HLE BIOS ?

          Enable debug logging when launching the game, then post the log file again - but on pastebin.com.

              @mitu No I didn't enable the HLE BIOS.
              I enabled the retroarch logging and this is the result:

              I don't see helpfull information in the logs myself but I hope you do!

                The log seems fine - unless the BIOS and/or the .img file is not correct, there isn't anything that stands out.

                    • update the emulator from source.
                    • change 'CD Read mehod' core option from 'async' to 'sync'.

                        @NoobGamer It's in the Core option, accessible when opening the in-game menu with Hotkey + X.

                          Yeah, but I can't acces that because I can't launch the game.

                            You can remove all pcsx_ core options by editing the \\retropie\configs\all\retroarch-core-options.cfg file, this will reset all options to default.
