Hey!, I accidently messed up my Pcsxbox v19 while playing around with the plugins to run my games, and i reinstalled it after that mistake and deleted all the save files from my xbox dashboard and (E:)drive so there would be nothing left of the old one i messed up. But the problem is, that even after i reinstalled it with fresh default plugins and all, for some reason the reinstalled version loaded the games and had the plugins settings automatically set to what the messed up version had o_O. It was like if i had not removed the messed up one to begin with!.(Reminder: I did delete it) Can anyone tell me why that happend even if all the old files were removed, and what is there that i can do to get the emulator to reset to the default settings and plugins???(sorry for makeing this long btw!)

Lol my posts are longer. I don't know how you restored your Xbox HD, but I suggest using XboxDHM and preform a hotswap. You can rebuild your HD from scratch, and if it's an older Xbox the dash will be updated.

If you need some help making an ISO for the rebiuld, PM me. If you did use a hotswap to restore files, I may have another work around. Let me know if this helped.

wtf is somebody telling you to hotswap and rebuild the fekkin whole drive for?
ignore the n00b and just completely remove the emulator folder.. also check for save states.. now that's going to take reading the emulator documents to find out where they are. Usually editing the config*.ini will restore default settings.. check the clean downloaded one against the one after installation and see if a save state is overwriting the file.

save states may go in E:\udata or they may go somewhere else.. where the screenshots go is sometimes a clue.. whatever.. the emu config file will have the pointers.. I can't be any more specific because the different versions of this emu are radically different.

I hope so..And i was wondering if there is a way to upgrade the plugins for the Emulator?, cause the ones that are built in to it suck!..Can't it be anything like the Pc version which lets you put your own plugins or something?
