thanks to jesalvein, it's working now.

but, there is another problem now

when i load the game (Spartan Total Warrior), it runs well at first, it gets fps around 50/60, then when it starts to the war (many moving characters) the fps drops to around only 20. i use default settings, it worked well before, in windows 7.
what cause this?

What are ee/gs(/vu) values during slowdowns?

FPS: around 20
EE: 98%
GS: 16%
VU: 0%

that's the value when it slowdowns

but when it's normal
FPS: around 50
EE: 13%
GS: 4%
VU: 0%

CPU is bottlenecking. But looking from your rig it shouldn't be. Something's definitely amiss.

Please screenshot all tabpages of emulation settings.

Please set the two sliders in the speedhacks section to their minimal/most left value.

Please check if mtvu helps or reduces the load.

If that doesnt help please monitor cpu clock rates using cpu-z during idle and emulation.
