Metal Gear Solid 2 Item number bug

[Joeysantos95]

Hey recently I started playing MGS2 using pcsx2. The game runs smoothly, after having to mess with the settings a bit but I got to a point where it stopped showing me how many items I have and what items I pick up. This problem started after the cutscene where you see Fortune for the first time. In fact the game got really slow past that point and I had to mess with the settings again. I'll post screenshots of my current settings and my pc specs are:

-4th generation Intel Core 17-4700MQ with Intel Turbo boost (2.40-3.40)
-DDR3L RAM 1.6MHz (8GB)
Nvidia GeForce GT 740M with Cuda Technology and Nvidia Optimus Technology (2GB VRAM)

what are the ee% & gs% when you get slowdowns ?
is your laptop overheating ?
are you runnning on batteries ?
did you set power plan to performance mode ?

Laptop runs fine, no overheating, its plugged to a power source when I play and its on high performance mode.
But now that I went to check the values, the game is running smoothly and I can see how much ammo I've got and stuff.
I think it was just a case of letting the laptop chill for a bit
