Hey guys, new to the RPCS3 forums, been really fascinated on the improvements of this emulator for the PS3 so I decided to give it a shot! But I seem to have hit a wall.

Been messing with RPCS3 for a couple of days now and have tried getting Catherine(USA) to work on it. I ripped the files from my own personal game and followed a couple of tutorials on setting up RPCS3 and the game (including a video specifically on getting Catherine setup, although it was on an older build). I used the start up guide, installed firmware, setup Graphics etc. In my trial and error I also searched the forums for similar issues and couldn't find them with the same description of problems.
 
My specs are:
i7-4770K 
Geforce 750ti
16 gb memory

Below is my boot log, any suggestions and help would be most appreciated!

Make sure you dumped the game correctly using the instructions on Quickstart guide, looks like you copy pasted directly from disc.
