Hello, I recently tried playing Prince of Persia sands of time and it is very laggy. I had this issue with Final Fantasy X a while back until the new update and now it runs fine for the most part.
However now with Prince of Persia I am getting around 30 FPS and the sound / voices are very slow and laggy. What is the issue here as I know my PC Specs beat that of a PS2 system.
That fact that your pc is stronger than a ps2 is irrelevant.
What are you specs?

I do not think it is irrelevant, if I had a horrible Windows 98 system, it would matter. However thank you for your reply here are my specs.
OS: Windows 8.1 Pro
Processor: 2.90Ghz Dual Core
RAM: 8GB
Video Card: Dedicated Graphics Card, AMD Radeon HD 5450
what is the model no. of your dual-core processor!

Im not opening the case to find out lol. But if you would like to look it up it is a Intel Pentium R CPU G645. I can find it on the intel site and post a link if needed, just let me know!
Thank you.

You can't compare a PC to a console. They both operate completely different, so even if your PC might be stronger in specs, there's still a huge difference when it comes to the 'usage' in hardware.
Just running Windows alone already makes your PC weaker than a PS2 in terms of power. A PS2 is purely dedicated to running a game and has nothing else bottlenecking it for that process. A PC has to do MANY things before it can even get close to that. So yes, your PC might be stronger in specs, but in the end you'll still need a beast in comparison.
As for that CPU... it's pretty weak. You'll have to fiddle with Speedhacks a bit. Unfortunately that CPU probably won't benefit from the MTVU hack. Try setting EE Cycle to 2 and VU stealing to 1, see if it improves things. (You can set both higher, but this can cause issues with games).

Thank you for you help and fast reply.
I am not using any speed hacks to my knowledge. I have setup the configuration according to a tutorial on here. It can be found here,

Other than that tutorial everything is default.
then try first with ee and vu / to 2 ! if it didn't work then use software mode with extra rendering thread to 3 and tik mtvu ! try both suggestions and tell us which one work's best for you !

Will these settings effect my other games?
