Hey all,
I have Renegade installed in a second partition on the same HDD. It is installed on my D Drive in seperate Programs folder.
Is it better if I should install it in the root primary partition C drive? I installed this way as my C drive tends to fill up quickly.
Everytime I start my computer each day and open Renegade (everytime for nearly the past 2 years believe it) my HDD drive starts going crazy and begins going crazy. I am guessing it is some I/O process or something.
It affects my game too as even the Renegade menu seems to have frame rate issues and in-game is HORRIBLE. I normally close everything and leave my machine for five minutes and then everything works like a charm.
I don't remember having these issues on the same machine when I had Renegade installed on C drive.
btw, this happens SOMETIMES with the other game I have installed (Oblivion: Elder Scrolls). I have it installed the same way as Renegade on D drive.
any hints? To try to solve this issue, I made sure no AV scans are running or any background programs or malware.
