Need help. My ePSXe is acting funny. It's either too slow or too fast.

[Kai il-Palazzo]

First I used 'Use FPS Limit' and the speed was terribly slow. Then I disabled 'Use FPS Limit' and now the game go way too fast no matter how much FPS limit I entered! I tried 60, 50, 10, 100, etc. and the speed is still the same. Anyone know what's going on?

I'm using Pete's OpenGL2 Driver, ATI RADEON 9600, winXP and 768 MB of RAM. Playing Suikoden II.

Try turning ON FPS Limitation, and manually set FPS limit (50for pal, 60for ntsc).
What do you have in "Game fixes"? Only enable those that are needed.
If you have a dual core system, read this thread for a fix.

he said it didn't matter what he tried to type in, are you sure you are enabling the right fields of frame limiting? "fram skip" makes the game go EXTREMELY fast if fps limit is not on, and with fps limit and fram skip on you get weird performance anyway.

Check his configurations, when he manually set a FPS limit, he turns off FPS Limitation as well. And he obviously has Frame skipping off.

Thanks! It's working fine now.
