ok i got them but....

....woah woah woah saved states dont work?lol ':o?

i guess ill go back save my games to the memory card and load them legitimatly lol

ill let u know how the speed is then thanks again for telling me what to download

[iakoboss7]

u are not supposed to use savestates that much better use normal saving/loading from memory cards cause its safer

[jadariin]

Try to use save states only for tedious parts in a game (like boss fights in the effing hard SMT series) so you wont reload to get back fast. Dont count on save states to much cause they wont be recognized when you copy them to other versions of the emu. Always have a memory card back up save.

Check out my thread, I posted my config and KH2 runs fine for me, constant 60 fps during gameplay and video scenes

u cant say to all the ppl to use the same settings as u cause it worked for u. everyone has different hardware so everyone must use different settings.

ok im back thanks for the try nate however i see straight off the bat you are using SSSE3 for your graphic. Im running a dual core so im assuming that SSE2 is the best for me. im still having the same problems however ill post my new specs with the revision of PCSX2 and the march plug ins. ill edit this when im done brb.


EDIT:
   

Above are my settings and data im still experiencing some slow down in game. Im beginning to believe that its not the settings but my computer... but I still have my fingers crossed
