when i run FF-XII i have low fps (5-31) only when in scene are present shadersWackoWacko
its strange, because my GPU(Intel® G33/G31 Express Chipset Family(256mb)) haven't problems with shaders 2.0Blink
which pcsx2 u r using?
'Not having problems' and 'runs them well' are two different things, and Intel's GPU chipsets aren't exactly known for performance.
i'm using Pcsx2 0.9.6
i meant that in games with shaders 2.0 (like half life episode 2) i have nice fps(more than 30)...
but in this situation fps5-30
Yeah but PCSX2 is not a PC game. So I don't know what does it have to do with anything...
30 fps in half life 2 says nothing
what is your cpu? i remember when running at 2ghz in FFXII, i had 85% at some views whilst looking the other way gave 100%
going 2.4ghz fixed it

I think all (PS2) games utilize Shaders 2.0. The emulator will not emulate with anythings less. Either way, your GPU sucks for PCSX2 in general (sorry). If you get what you consider playable speeds with SOME GAMES, that's awesome. Smile If you have troubles, it's likely hardware related, if not compatibility in general.

What are your PC's specs, anyway?

EDIT: Oh! My mistake. I new there was Half Life 2 for Xbox, I just assumed there was also one on PS2. If your comparing PC games to EMULATING PS2 games, you should not expect an accurate comparison.
As others noted: It's your slow graphics card.
To fix it, buy a new laptop with a dedicated 3d card.
