Big Box crashing on laptop

So I have a copy of Launchbox set up and running perfectly on my gaming PC, I have since made a copy of everything to a external hard drive.

When I attempt to run Big Box on my laptop it runs rather slowly, its fine if I start a game but scrolling through titles is in the 1-10 fps if you are lucky, not to mention if attract mode starts the whole damn thing locks up and crashes and thats with the speed turned way down.

the laptop specs are Windows 10 Home, 2.4Ghz 4 core AMD Processor with 8 gbs ram and onboard memory. The external HD is USB 3 but it is in a 2.0 slot on the laptop.

I'm thinking the hard drive might be a bottle neck but I thought Id ask here first just in case.

 

Update: after several hours of copying stuff to the internal HD I still have the same issue even with the default theme and after refreshing all images

just as a test, does it work well on your AMD laptop if you install a brand new clean LB on the internal drive and import a couple platforms and wait for it to finish caching images?

then again, maybe AMD 2.4Ghz isn't enough, but I honestly don't know on that one.
