Need Help slowing down speed

I just installed the Playstation emulator on my Windows XP 1.0 Ghz computer with 256 Mb of ram, computer. He is what I downloaded:

1. ePSXe151 (PSX program)

2. ePSXeCutor1051 (Pluggin)
3. Scph1001 (Bios)
4. gpupete161 (Pluggin/Pete's pluggin?)
5. spuEternal12 (Sound Pluggin)

I installed the program and added the other files into the Pluggin folder (Except for the Bios file). I then proceeded to run the set up wizard and choose the available options in each of the boxes.

One problem occurs when choosing the CD-Rom device. It asks me if I want to use Windows 95, or Windows 2000 interface. Since I have XP, I choose the Win 2000 interface. If I try and use 95, the window crashes and locks up. I have to manually shut down the open window.

It seems to work correctly in the Windows 2000 mode, with the exception of running at a very fast frame rate. Probabally two or three times the normal speed. I tried changing the settings under Options, Video, Frame rate (specified to 60 frames per second). I have even tried setting it to 5 frames per second, but there is no change in the speed. For some reason, the program is not accepting my settings after I have changed them , shut down the program, and tried restarting the program with the new settings.

Does anyone know how I can slow down the speed of ePSXe to a reasonable rate? Thanks.

I tried to limit it be specifying the frames per second to 60 and less, but nothing worked. Finally, I clicked on the bottom for video performance, Smooth, instead of speed, and it seemed to fix the problem by itself. Strange that the program would not take the changes I was making until I hit that button. O well. Thanks anyways for help. If you have any other suggestions on why my other method wasn't working, please let me know. Thanks again.
