From the sticky at the top of the forum you posted in:

The game is running way too fast
  • turn on frame limiting, and set the limit to Auto. You can also manually set it to 60 (NTSC) or 50 (PAL). thanks to Shendo for making the pic.
  • MDECs and XA music play at unlimited speed but everything else responds to the frame limit? This is a recent problem, and it's caused by dual core CPUs. you need to set it so that your epsxe.exe runs on a single core. for more information, check this thread. thanks to dbhankins for this fix. Also, if you are using a dual core AMD processor, install the dual core optimizer, as well as the processor driver, from here.

Well, think about it from my side. If you were the only person who posted all day asking for help, then maybe I would feel good about describing the entire process.

But look in the forum. There are tons of posts every day. How could every single thread be a brand new query? Well that's an easy answer, they're not! We get the same questions over and over and over again. That's why we wrote the FAQ's and guides you see as stickies at the top of each section. Instead of fully explaining to every single person, we can just produce a quick link that explains it. In this way, each user gets to spend an extra couple of minutes reading. And maybe you'll learn something too!

To sum it up: we just got sick of writing out the same exact thing in every thread!
