Default Low Fps?

Hello, I'm new to this server and everquest. Got this game recently, but i don't plan to subscribe to the real servers, since i dont even have credit card. I like old mmo's like ultima and anarchy online, because theres many things to learn and discover in them, something missing lately. Graphics aren't something i care about.

Problem is, that when using eqemu, i get extremely bad fps, like 1-2 fps, and graphics setting doesn't seem to change anything, wether its fullscreen, windowed or whatever. Furthermore, the game works perfectly fine on Shards of Dalaya. This server doest appeal to me much tho, as there are less people and as I understand, it isn't the "real" everquest...

My laptop isn't even remotely new, but i figure for so old game it shouldn't matter, it can run pretty high req games, up to DDO and UT2004...

Heres the specs:
Compaq evo n800v
Windows xp sp2
pentium4 1.6 ghz (not multi-core)
500 mb ram
mobility radeon 7500 32 mb ram
Soundmax digital audio (not sure about that)
10 mb/s lan connection, local provider

If theres some incompabilities or fixes with this hardware, I would be happy to know them. So far i havent been able to get out of the character creation screen, its so bad.
