Peter,

I sent you a PM with some screen dumps. I would expect less services in a minimised OS but I could be wrong.

Lowering the graphics memory to 32Mbit+2 did nothing for the SFS.

Scanning all corners of the OS I stumbled upon a not working intel graphics driver (in error state...). I updated the driver to the newest version and this is part of the solution because now I can play up to an SFS  of 220!

Still 220 to go...

regards, Coen

I'm there!!!

 yahoo

It just took a couple of reboots to be fast enough to prevent the gremlins peeping into the virgin memory.

I could detect no big memory users besides XXEngine3 in the task manager process screen (selected the 'allocated memory' column). According to my graphics utility the videodriver allocated a whopping 64Mbit for all graphics purposes. I had to be possible.

Now I still don't think my minimised OS is booting like it should.... unsure
