Need help with Final Fantasy 1 - hhisc29926 - 11-17-2013

Operating system: Windows 8 (64 bit).
Processor: Intel Celeron CPU 847 @ 1,10 GHz.
RAM: 4 GB.
Video: Intel HD Graphics.
Emulator: JPCSP-r3408-windows-x86-64.
Problem: I load "Final Fantasy", the window title reads: "Final Fantasy FPS: [between 10 and 30], averageFPS: [between 10 and 30, also]". The window is black and nothing happens at all.

If someone is willing to help me, I have to ask another favor: please do not asume that I know very much; if you need me to do something, please let me know how (for example, if I have to provide more information, please let me know how can I get it). I know plenty about computers in general, but nothing about emulators. Please do not expect me to know as much as you do, because if I did, then I would not have this problem and would not be posting here (let us be reasonable).

Thank you very much for all your help.

Well it won't have full speed because of the intel HD graphics.Did you press run after loading the game?It may seem a silly question but given the fact that pcsx2 loads the game directly I assume you thought about the same for jpcsp.Also the processor is a very slow one so getting full speed with that pc...

I have another laptop computer which is older and less powerful (slower, less RAM...), and has Windows 7 (64-bit). It has integrated graphics, too. The game runs on that computer, but with a lot of issues; however, it runs. When I press "Run" after loading the game using the computer with Windows 8, the window title is "Final Fantasy FPS: [between 10 and 30], averageFPS: [between 10 and 30, also]". The window gets black and nothing happens at all. I have waited for about one hour and nothing happens. With Tactics Ogre, after a while the game starts, but with a lot of graphic interference.

Is Windows 8 the cause?. Can some settings be changed, so that the game (or games) will run?. Any ideas?.

Thank you for your help.

I believe this is related to this issue: http://www.emunewz.net/forum/showthread.php?tid=154070&pid=198801#pid198801

Apparently those specific games are showing some regressions in terms of graphics.
Unfortunately, with an integrated graphical card the emulator will always have issues displaying graphics, but we're currently introducing an external software renderer which will hopefully help with this issue.
