        @horaciowm That's a CCD image format (Clone CD image) and that's because it doesn't work.

        After converted to cue+bin it works for me with mednafen psx core, but I suppose it will work with any core after conversion to the right format.

        I used CDmage for doing that, only takes to me 1 min.

        Just drag the .cue file on the left box and click on file>save as...

        CDmage: http://www.mediafire.com/file/qiccft4dmadinif/CDmage1-02-1B5.zip Only 600kb.

        Regards.

            @horaciowm I tried , it works for me, you are selecting the bad cue, try the new cue, not the old one.

                      @Nismo The game ROM. Not the CDmage.

                        I tried @Nismo directions and then tested with lr-pcsx-rearmed and pcsx-rearmed and had the same issues with it loading up with the PSX logo intro then to a black screen. I believe Nismo is testing with the Beetle/Mednafen PSX core which is for x86 systems only.

                          @backstander Yeah. I think the same. Mednafen isn't avaiable for Raspberry PI 3's Retropie.

                            Must have a way to solve this issue.

                                I broke down and gave the download a try. I was able to play it using the Mednafen PSX RetroArch core without any modification. However, using the same BIOS, I was unable to get it to load with any of the available PSX options in RetroPie. I know it's disappointing, but it could be that this game is simply unplayable on RetroPie.

                                  @mediamogul yes I tested on Windows but I think libretro cores are cross platform
                                  and the same improvements in all systems.

                                    I might be misunderstanding you, but the Mednafen PSX RetroArch core isn't available for RetroPie.

                                      @mediamogul I didn't know that core was not available. What cores available for psx in retropie then?

                                          lr-pcsx-rearmed
                                          pcsx-rearmed
                                          lr-beetle-psx

                                          beetle is mednafen. they renamed it for whatever reason.

                                          but... only pcsx-rearmed has an ARM dynarec, which means only those two cores will give playable performance on a pi system.

                                            @dankcushions Then can somebody try with beetle even with poor performance? just to see if it boots.

                                            Pcsx has not as good compatibility as mednafend psx/beetle.
