Moi? Here's the thing Dave, the steam folder can live wherever you like but I'm not sure you can just copy it from one place to another that easily. What I've done is this; windows install and some resource intensive applications (like Photoshop) are on my SSD RAID, - this is the C:\ drive. My user folder is on D:\ as is my Steam folder. I have two further data drives E:\ and F:\ for backups and IL2. Snag is, a setup like this can only be done while installing windows (via the sysprep tool and audit mode). I have got an instruction guide I can send you and I'm happy go thru it on ts if u like Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'd be inclined to reset the bios to the default by popping out the battery back up (making sure the unit is not connected to the mains first) then just connecting the SSD and DVD drive. Once that boots install windows and add a basic set of drivers (network card) and let windows sort out the updates. Then reconnect the data drives and away you go.

Sorry to hear this dude. Key thing to remember about win 7 is that it likes to sort the partitions itself rather than have it done separately. Whenever I do a windows reinstall I strip the partitions off the target drive and point the installer at the drive and leave the rest to windows. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Whatever. Plenty of mods enhance the gaming experience rather than damage it but if he wants to fly stock IL2 then fine. Judging by the tone of the post I suspect he's just trolling for a reaction. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lovely sounds

Never mind the theory test - some sort of common sense test might be a good idea.

Thanks to Nvidia's driver architecture, it should be a case of pulling the old card out and slapping in the new one as both these cards are supported by the same driver. That said, I'd download the latest version to your PC beforehand - just in case.

True FT - The Merlin is a symphony by itself (not so keen on the wagerian 109 though)

Thanks for that Rog - nice vids! Jabo

I would so love a set of those but at $400 they're out of my price range for the time being. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

#brainfart #darnthetechnology Yep - my bad - joined 17th September - last visit 19th September. So I might still be right about the first thing.

Looks like he got an answer and left, last accessed the forums back in April. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Many happy returns guys.

Sweeeet. The '109 will have to wait for a sale later in the year though - I have my hands full with the other warbirds in the stable at present.

"Optimise" - oh yeah - been there, done that. Never mind FT. Hopefully you haven't scorched the paintwork?

Boo, can't watch this in the UK.

Lordy. So apart from the big hump on the top, what differences are there between this type of aircraft and a 'stock' 747?

Hi Goth, no it's not, steam.exe is a different application. Launcher.exe is the one you need. If you have a clod icon on your desktop try right-clicking it and select 'properties' - that should tell you the location of launcher.exe. You could then add the program manually to the list in the nvidia manager. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm with Arthur on this Col, but what are the specs of your machine at the moment? (CPU + clock speed, RAM quantities and graphics card if poss) - in between the turkey leftovers of course. Bear in mind that I was running AC with no issues on this; CPU: Intel i5 2500K - 3.7Ghz RAM: 12GB GFX: nVidia GTX580 3GB OS: Windows 7 Ultimate (64-bit)

I think Sweper might be agreeing with you Col

Not really Col, as the cpu would still be sending the instructions to the sound card regardless of whether it's an on-board card or not. What's all this about another game anyway? What load issues are you getting and what's your rig got these days?

I'd love to see a DCS version of that!
