    Default I'm using the emulator ePSXe to run its running my game too fast

    I think the problem is that I have a duo core computer, I tried the faq resolution to this problem, but unfortunatly there was no change, and as for the readme that said this is what I should see:

    C:\Program Files\LucasArts\GRIM\Grim.exe contains no configuration information
    C:\Program Files\LucasArts\GRIM\Grim.exe contains a Subsystem Version of 4.0
    C:\Program Files\LucasArts\GRIM\Grim.exe updated with the following configuration information:
    Process Affinity Mask: 00000001
    I entered:

    imagecfg -a 0x1 "C:\Emulators\ePSXe\ePSXe.exe"

    and this is what I saw instead:

    C:\Emulators\ePSXe contains no configuration information
    C:\Emulators\ePSXe contains a Subsystem Version of 4.0
    C:\Emulators\ePSXe updated with the following configuration information:
    Process Affinity Mask: 00000001

    I did it a second time after it didn't work to make sure I didn't type something in wrong, my os is windows xp and I have a duo core computer with hyperthreading enabled, so what should I do now? did I do something wrong? I'm still new to emulators but I'm trying to learn as quickly as I can, any help is very apreciated

    in the vid plugin make sure fps limit is checked also check auto fps or set fps (manual set should be around 50fps or 60fps depending on the region of the game you play, personly I would only touch that if autodetect is having problems so sometimes setting to 51fps fixes sinc issues)

    PAL (E) = 50
    NTSC (U) = 60

    This has 0 to do with what you have described

    A very technical second guess though I'm actually impressed by that lol
