i know this has been addressed, and yes, i searched for previous threads, but i am not a computer smart guy and didn't understand anything, so i'm asking for a lamens terms solution - where do i find the speed hack and how do i enable it? ffx is running a bit slow for my liking (around 15fps during the opening intro)

Download that pcsx2 in pcsx2 beta discussion forum for speed hacks option.

ok i did that and it came with pcsx2svn377 and pcsx2tsvn377 and nothing else. do i copy everything that came in the ver. 0.9.4 folder over to the beta version's folder?

No man, that in http://forums.pcsx2.net/thread-3716.html . Pcsx2 beta r.528 snapshots was already there.

didn't seem to speed it up much... i copied all the .dlls and folders from the 0.9.4 version, ran the beta, selected the first two speed hacks, and it still isn't moving quicker. did i do something wrong?

i'm running ffx-international by the way. also i am using a latop with an intel core 2 duo processor, so maybe my computer just ain't cutting it
