you can't really solve the slowdown unless you get a better processor. ( since you are on a laptop the upgrade path is unavailable and you'd preferably need a new desktop (or) better lap to play the game well on software mode.)

not a bad CPU, but only a dual core...
you may try setting extra sw rendering threads to 2 or 3 to get a little speedboost in software mode, but don't expect miracles.
It's probably better to play it on your PS2 for now

Try Direct3D9 Hardware mode. Since last update nVidia's drivers, directx11 on pcsx2 it's so bugged.

almost close to improvement with PCSX2 v1.5.0 - dev - 718 - gc94fecd Update build 6 May 2016 with OpenGL Hardware, better than before

after:

but, some fog interfere vision

software mode :

The latter seems like a fog issue now. Try upping skipdraw 1 by 1 and see if you can get rid of the fog entirely.

PCSX2 v1.5.0 - dev - 720 by Jonathan Li
