I had the problem where items could not be "investigated" which I was told could be fixed by turning on either Read Frame Buffers to Memory (CPU) or Read Frame Buffers to Memory (GPU) in the Settings under Graphics.

Using CPU allows for selecting items to be investigated, but the FPS drops to unplayable levels.

Using GPU maintains the FPS, but crashes at the scene where investigation becomes possible. Can anyone tell me what I should do to make the game work?

It seems that the investigation bug has been around since the game was first ripped, and that plenty of people have been able to play it on previous versions, so there must be a way for it to work with the latest version.

Your only choice in the matter is to enable Frameskipping together with Read Frame Buffers to Memory (CPU) if you're on an AMD or Intel graphics card on Windows.

Using the GPU option is only ever recommended if you have a dedicated NVIDIA card on your PC, since the other GPU vendors graphics cards don't function well enough in this game to use it.

You never did mention your PC specifications, so I've no idea why it could be so slow for you.

Using the laptop in my signature and enabling the Read Frame Buffers to Memory (CPU) option, the game is still very playable for me, with over 300% speed in most cases.

Unless you're using PPSSPP on an even weaker PC than mine (It's a 4-5 year old laptop), I seriously doubt you should have any crippling performance issues enabling the option.

As a final note, try out this guide and see whether it helps (ignoring the rendering mode of course, since this game NEEDS one of those two Framebuffers to Mem options to even function properly)
