Hi, I'm new here and I'm in desperate need of a solution for this problem!
Basically I've installed PCSX2 to the fullest extent. When I run games everything starts smoothly, splash screens are fine, FMV's run smoothly and menus run at normal speed as well. At these points I usually have 60+ FPS. The problems start when I actually begin playing. My FPS drops dramatically to around 30-40, audio is distorted and slow and the gameplay suddenly becomes very slow. Everything renders correctly but it's just slow for some reason.
I've read countless threads with no solution. My PC specs seems like they're good enough except maybe my CPU however I have read that some people are running PCSX2 fine on lower models. Anyway here they are:-
ASRock N68C-S
4GB 1330mhz DD3 RAM
AMD/ATI Saphire HD 7850 OC edition 2GB
AMD Athlon XII 3.0ghz
From what I've read my PC should be meeting the minimum requirements for running the games. So far I've tried, Metal Gear Solid 2, Tony Hawks 4, Burnout 3 and Devil May Cry, all with the same issue; everything runs smoothly until the actual gameplay starts. Cutscenes are fine, menus are fine etc.
Thank you!
