NetherSX2 PS2 boot menu every time I try to open

Everytime I open Max Payne it takes me to the PS2 configuration page and doesn’t let me start the game. I have made a memory card folder and when trying other games it seems to work perfectly fine. I even used a different ISO to see if that’s a problem but still no luck. can someone please help me as I was half way through this game 🙏
