Question 
i got the emulator about a year or two ago and once i changed the settings according to a youtube video it ran perfectly! but ive had to reset my computer since then and had to reinstall it. (i only just did that though, and i had to reset it a few months ago) no matter what video i follow or what i change the settings to it runs way to slow! my computer does only run 1.60 ghz and has 2 CPUs and i heard you need at least 2.5 GHz but then why did it run so well before? its the same computer so it shouldnt be any different right?

Hi, if you using windows10 did you update to the latest version ? Because it doesn't run well with pcsx2. Therefore I avoided the latest windows 10 update. PCSX2 is running fine on my computer.

It doesn't run well? What changes did they make that lead you to that?

The new windows 10 update provide a complete change to the old windows 10. Do your pcsx2 have problems after update to the latest windows 10 ?

Likewise. My old laptop and current desktop, no issues. Surface too.

aveea - if its a laptop with switchable graphics, make sure the discreet card is being used. Check your performance profile.
also, newer versions of pcsx2 are more accurate, which results in better compatibility and, unfortunately, a higher cpu load.
What are you system specs? (cpu model, not freq.. if a laptop, model, etc...)
