===1. Update to latest version===
Emulators can have stable builds that are weeks, months, and sometimes even years old. The "stable" version is often times just a randomly picked dev version. That is why the latest dev versions should be preferred. This could solve emulation issues most of the time. Links to dev builds can be found at the pages for [[PCSX-Reloaded|PCSX-R]], [[PCSX2]], [[Dolphin]], [[nullDC]], [http://emulation-general.wikia.com/wiki/DeSmuMe [DeSmuME]] and [http://emulation-general[PPSSPP]]. ===2.wikiaChange settings===If you're using a plugin based emulator, graphical glitches and sound issues might be solved by changing the settings or using a different, better plugin altogether.*[[Recommended_PS1_Plugins|PS1 Plugins]]*[[Recommended_N64_plugins|N64 Plugins]]If you're using '''Dolphin''', try switching the graphics backend between OpenGL and Direct3D, and the sound between HLE and LLE.com/ For '''PCSX2''', check the [[PCSX2#Issues|issues section of its wiki/PPSSPP PPSSPPpage]].
