I had been using PCSX2 effectively for about a week, i completed multiple big games (one being Kingdom Hearts) and was a few hours in to Kingdom Hearts 2. i started up PCSX2 today and it was slower then usual. my only slow program is PCSX2 and it seems to run exactly 25% too slow (its claiming 59-60fps on average). i can go into config and adjust framerate to 125% and it runs fine( at about 75fps). I was wondering if anyone knew what could be causing this problem out of the blue, and how to fix it more effectively then just speeding it up 25%? I unfortunately cant always handle some games at 75fps, so when it slows back down to 60 it gets 25% slower, which can really just ruin a game. its every game, not just KH. ive tried toggling with most of the speed hack settings along with other settings, but nothing seems to fix it besides the simple(but not effective enough) 25% speed up.
TL;DR 125% framerate (75fps) plays games fine, 100% (60fps) plays them slow, didnt happen originally, my PC cant always handle 125%.
any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

You didn't turn VU stealing on, by mistake did you? Can you post screenshots of your configuration in config->emulation settings?
My suggestion would be to reinstall PCSX2. Back up your memory cards from the memcard directory. If you are using savestates, make sure to reinstall the same exact version of PCSX2 as states are not compatible between versions.

turn off both the sliders to start with and work forward from there.

I have Already disabled and enabled, and slid the sliders on Speedhacks. i UNINSTALLED and reinstalled the program and only kept my memory cards and ISO's (which i kept seperate at first to check if memory card did it somehow?). ive toyed with just about every single thing in config, even a couple of the ones in Game fixes category. only way it plays normal speed so far is to change "base frame adjust" to 125

so i woke up this morning, turned on my pcsx2, and it works fine! i have no idea why it was like that yesterday, NOTE: i DID restart my computer yesterday, and uninstalled and reinstalled pcsx2, with no effect. so the computer restart wasnt responsible. also, my gamecube emulator had no issues. so i am clueless as to what happened. if anyone can figure it out i would greatly appreciate it!

I would put bets on it being a program running in the background killing it, or a graphics driver update went weird.
