Hello guys, I need some help here. The thing is, everytime I load an ISO my whole pc stops and then I get the lovely message telling you that the graphics card has stopped working.

I'm using a Radeon R7 240 graphics card. Supposedly it happens to all the AMD/Radeon graphics card, but I want to be sure that I don't do something stupid, so if you guys could help me I would really appreciate it.

Peace.

Most likely this is a driver issue. Have you tried installing the very latest drivers for your video card?

Also, if your video card settings have an option for Catalyst AI, disable it. This option has apparently caused countless crashes for AMD users, and not just with PPSSPP.

Hello there, thanks for helping me out.

Yes, I do have the latest driver and my graphic card doesn't have a Catalyst AI option. But by that information I checked the graphic card settings and there were some options that were "Optimized AMD" or something like that, it results that when I disable them, PPSSPP doesn't crash anymore. So I guess those options were like an equal to the Catalyst AI problem.

Again, thanks for the help. Without that little clue I really doubt I would have fixed that.

Update: Well... at least it stopped crashing when I put it in DirectD9 (Or something like that), but when I open an ISO with OpenGL it crashes no matter what.
