Better performance from boot drive install?
Hi;
I've got a 6yr old system with the following specs:
Asus P5AD2-E Premium mobo with Intel 925 XE chipset
P4 3.4Ghz single core (socket 775) 800Mhz FSB
BFG GeForce 9800 GTX+ 512MB
Antec True Power 550W PSU
Memory: 3GB 533Mhz DDR2 (Crucial)
Main HDD: WD Caviar 500GB SATA 7200RPM, 32MB buffer configured as single drive (no RAID) on SIL3114 controller.
Monitor: Samsung 2494HM 24" running at 1920 X 1080.
Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit.
Trainz TS2010_SP3 settings:
Display: OpenGL mode, 1920 X 1080, 32bits color, fullscreen mode.
TS Options in Surveyor/Driver set as follows:
Draw Distance: 3Km or higher
Texture detail: High
Train Detail: High
Scenery Detail: Normal
Is it at all possible that performance of TS2010 is lower when it is installed on a logical drive that is not the boot?
I have TS installed on the same physical, but different partition/logical drive than the boot.
I experience a lot of jerkiness that does not appear related to frame rate, as I see the same low frame rates in other games, but do not have the jerkiness. The other games are installed on the boot drive.
Thanks
