FFIX trouble

[darkky]

on disc 2, after you get ramuh at pinnacle rocks there is a series of 2 FMV's and then a short dialogue section. my game either starts skipping and freezing right after the fmv sequence or goes to black screen when my characters enter lindblum. did anyone else have this problem? and suggestions on fixing it? here is a more detailed list of different effects of different pops version: 3.52 game skips and freezes, 3.71 game skips and freezes, 3.72 game skips and freezes, 4.01 game goes to black screen while trying to enter lindblum after fmv sequence and music still plays, 4.01 with popsloader disabled game goes to black screen while trying to enter lindblum after fmv sequence, second fmv has no sound. hopefully there will be a solution, and its not a bad eboot that would suck. bad.

*update* 3.40 game skips and freezes
*update* 3.30 skips and freezes

for clarification when i say freezes i mean that it will not go past a certain point, i.e. where the skipping begins

okay, i just went and copied my SAVEDATA, reformatted the memory stick, placed the files and pops back on, and the ran it on 4.01 and it worked. somehow. whatever

try using cwcheat popsloader. if cwcheat's popsloader can do anything, i'd be playing ffix :O
