Hi, welcome to the forum.

Here is a rough step by step guide:

1. Accquire a BIOS file, most people use SCPH1001.BIN. Use google, it's easy enough to find. Put this file somewhere on your phone, a place you can easily find.

2. Open Fpse, go to the settings menu, then system. At the top you'll see "BIOS Loading", press that and find your BIOS file you have on your phone.

3. Turn off HLE in the same menu. Scroll down and press "Default config save"

4. Either press back twice, or close and restart fpse. Now load your game.

There are plenty of other settings too, video and input etc... But this should get you going with a game.

I can only view the cue file when I am trying to load the game up.....where can I get a game in the proper format so I can test it out and see if it is a problem with the files

A .cue and .bin file should be all you need.

You must of transferred the files to your phone using your PC? If so then double check the names of the files to make sure that they match. For example "coolborders.bin" and "coolborders.cue".

Also as frenchaddict said, you could have a different file extention aswell as .bin

If something is compressed it could say "coolborders.bin.z"

Or use a file explorer on your phone.

Check the file names and post back here if you can please.
