Okay, so, every game I play on epsxe 1.7.0 lags. With some it is annoying, others it renders the game unplayable. Here are my specs:
Windows Vista on HP dv4 laptop with an AMD Turion X2 Dual-Core Moblile RM-74 2.20 Ghz processor with 4 GB of RAM and an ATI RADEON HD 3200 with 512 MB of memory
I would think there wouldn't be any problems, right? I'm not the most computer savvy guy but, I'm pretty sure I shouldn't be having these problems with my system.
I keep my video at pretty conservative settings without making the games look like utter crap. I use opengl 2.9:

Misc: Wait for XA buffer is free
Special game fix: Update before accesing register for FF8, ff9 and some SQUARE games
So does anybody have any suggestions? My main problem is with ff9 (no big surprise) It sometimes plays fine but then all of sudden starts to lag with video and sound as do, really, all the other games I play except for ff7 which i must admit plays with no problems.
If anybody has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. I just want to play my damn games! ha.
