I have a similar problem but i cant seem to find any answers. I started playing FF8 a few weeks ago. i had finished the first disc but the second one wudnt load. i cudnt find any answers at all. i decided to play a different game. i then found out how to change discs on FF8. so i went to load it but it didnt work. it just wont load at all. im playing it using ePSXe.
