[mongoose]

hey ilovejedd thanks for the reply

i just switched there and im still getting the same problem.
i switched vu1 and vu0 to superVU

didnt seem to speed the frame rate up

any other suggestions?

What speedhacks do you have enabled? VU Cycle Stealing, etc?

[mongoose]

heres a link to the speed hacks i have enabled in the beta version

i have been playing around with the top 2 bars but to no avail

Just noticed you have a Core Duo meaning laptop. What power profile are you using? Also, are you running on batteries or plugged to the wall?

[mongoose]

yup im on a laptop
im plugged to the wall (my battery lasts 8 mins)

im using xp
its set to allways on
i have it to never standby/ turn off hard disks or monitor

is there a power profile im unaware of?

[ilovejedd]

I've forgotten the power profiles with XP are pretty limited. I'm just so used to Windows 7 which allows relatively fine processor state management. When my laptop's running on battery, it automatically limits max CPU to 50%.

Will have to look at my settings when I get home. I seem to recall running the game without any speedhacks on my Celeron E3300 3.33 GHz Wolfdale, though. Hmm, have you tried setting EE Cycle Rate to 1 with VU Cycle Stealing at 1 or 2?

hey i just tried those suggested settings and no luck!

i think i have changed so many things now i have no idea which ones im supposed to have checked/unchecked

if anyone has a similar system to me could you post up your settings and i can replicate them?

also when pcsx2 is uninstalled is there any config or settings files left behind?
was thinking i could start fresh and see what happens

[ilovejedd]

Hmm, what D3D internal res or scaling are you using?
