This has been asked several times before, have you tried any of these solutions?
I've read that Hardware Acceleration seems to be a big culprit, and I've had to disable it for some games before.

I actually have tried some of them and some of the options i cant find on my computer in control panel and how would i make the priority of the game on high? right clicking it doesnt seem to be able to set its priority neither are there any options to do so other than to change the controls or the size of the display window

I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but I think it goes something like this:
Open the Task Manager with Ctrl+Alt+Delete.
Go to Processes and find Cave Story. {Should be something like "Doukustsu.exe". It must be running, too}
Right click the name, and go to "Set Priority" {Or something similar}
Then set it to whatever you want it to be.
You'll have to do this everytime you start it up, I believe.

{I'm just dredging this up from memory, by the way}

just tried it yes your correct thats how you set the priority but no effect on it being in slow motion

Did you try turning off Hardware Acceleration? {It's mentioned in that other thread}
I've got a feeling that would help, at least a bit.

dont know where that setting is on my computer cant find it in display or control panel anywhere

It might be different for you.

Control Panel > Sound and Audio Devices > Speaker Settings - Advanced > Choose "Performance" tap > Set Hardware Acceleration to "None"

How far down this route did you get?

ok found itr set it to normal and it doesn't change the slow mo either about to try to set it all the way at its lowest

[VoidMage_Lowell]

Normal? Lowest?
What was it set to originally? And can you even turn it off completely? {Because that's what's recommended}
