Tales of Symphonia problems

Hello. (First post comming)
Yesterday, i received my 3 in 1 MAgic joy box. I then had to get ToS. I plugged my controller in, everything was working just fine. But the i realized something. I've only got 30%-45% speed. It is awful to play like that Sad

.
Here are my specs:

AMD Athlon™ II P360 Dual-Core Processor 2.30 GHz
4 GB Ram
Windows 7 64 bits
AMD Radeon HD 6650M

I tried many tutorials on this forum and on Youtube, none of them worked.
Could someone give me the solution, please ? Sad

Also, when Lloyd, Colette or Genis are talking, (i use the French version of the game), Their mouth are moving, no soud is coming out. I've only got the subtitles. That's not a big problem, but a really annoying one.
Thanks for reading and maybe for answering. Khrom.

Your CPU is too weak. You have now three options:

1. Try the settings for best speed and use the official Dolphin 3.0 release
2. Try an ICC optimized Dolphin build + the settings for best speed
3. Try an old Dolphin revision, e.g. r6505, r6515 etc.

Yep, too slow

I've already said that Wink

There is nothing you can do unless you buy a better notebook.

And for the sound LLE is needed but once more your CPU is too slow to support it

You'll probably need specs similar to mine (Sandy/Ivy Bridge CPU @ 3.3 GHz) to get anywhere close to fullspeed all the time. I'm still at stock clocks, but I can pretty much run it constantly 55~60 FPS with LLE audio in towns and battle, and a solid 30 FPS in the overworld field. If you can't get fullspeed with HLE audio, there's no way that'll happen with LLE audio, since it's quite demanding. A hardware upgrade is what you need if you want to play this game at fullspeed.

@DefenderX - We've updated the global forum rules to reflect our policy on unsupported old builds. It was previously unwritten, but it's there for everyone to read now. We don't encourage the use of unsupported builds, and we ask that they're not recommended as solutions. You're not in trouble, since I doubt anyone other than forum staff noticed it was recently added to the rules :p

Sorry for updating the subject one more time, but is it normal that i have the same speed with Kirby Air Ride, which is a quiet low-tier game ? Sad
