[Where to find PS emulator save states?]

well Ive tried a bunch of things, but what I just noticed, is that If I try to save on the mem card I dled, where it has the data, it says save from another title.

Ill put everything here to summarize:

FFVIII ISO (PAL) file

psxe 1.60

converted files to .mcr using PSXmemtool

when I try to load the memcard slot ingame, it says no data.

when saving on the memcard, it says that the files are from another title

It wont even let me get into the saved game. Like it tries to load, then a message pops up saying No Save Game Data

I downloaded like 3 different files, because I thought maybe one or two was empty, but all three have data on them. I started the bios, and went to the memory card part and the files were there. I even tried to copy them to the other card (the default 2nd mem card that comes with the psxe). But still it says No Data.

yea, its in there, and when I opened psxe I went to config, and then memcards and changed the slot 1 to the one I just converted

I tried the things everyone (all of you and many other forums) have suggested, yet still the save states don't work. I downloaded one from the list on gamefaqs, but it didn't work when I just stuck it in there, so I downloaded PSXmemtool and opened the gme file, ans then hit save, and saved it as a mcr file. But still as a mcr file it says No Save Data when I try to load it up. I assume the problem is in the converting step for me. Any help would be much appreciated.
