My Laptop Specs, how should I configure my eSPXe?

I downloaded the newest version of ePSXe the other day, 1.70 but I'm having trouble running games. Alot of them are very laggy on the loading screens, very laggy music, and the frame rate runs very high, between 300-600. I downloaded a torrent of ePSXe with all the plugins and bios because I had trouble downloading them on my own. I can get simple games like Harvest Moon Back to Nature to run perfectly but games such as Chrono Cross, FF VII and Vagrant are running laggy for me.


Here are the plugins I have:

Video:
Pete's OpenGL Driver 1.58 (current one i'm using)
P.E.Op.S Soft Driver 1.14
P.E.Op.S Soft Driver 1.17
Pete's D3D Driver 1.58
[NextGL] 1.12

Sound:
ePSXe SPU core 1.5.2. (current one i'm using)
Eternal SPU Plugin 1.50
Null Sound Driver 1.0
P.E.Op.S DSound Audio Driver 1.9

Bios:
bios\PSX - SCPH1001.BIN (current one i'm using)



Now here are my System Specs:

-3GB RAM
-320 GB Hard drive
-Intel Pentium Dual-Core Mobile Processor T2370 1.73 GHz
-Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100


What plugins should I use (or download if I need better ones) and how should I configure them?

Thanks!

To fix the fast framerate, enable FPS limit in your video plugin. Now about the lag, are you running those games directly from CD-ROM? Some CD-ROM drives don't work well with ePSXe.

You need to make a copy of the game you are playing.

To do that make a ISO file of the game.

Here is a free Program that will do it.

I'm running the games as ISOs I thought... I push file > Run Iso > Chrono Cross Disk 1.bin

Is that correct? Or do I need to burn them to disks and then with the disk inserted, file > run CDROM ??
