temporary file - hard drive dying: J:\$Mft

Hello,

I have an old IDE HD here that is on it's last days. My faithfull 160gb HD has been with me for a long time. I have backed up important files, so when it dies, it'll go in peace. That being said...

The HD has 2 partitions: E and J

Why is FM2011 using the J drive for temporary file and how do I change this?

Recently playing FM2011 I got a warning from windows 7 about corrupted file in J:\$Mft related to Football Manager 2011 - fm.exe

Why is it using this driver for temp file?

I guess this is what is causing my FM2011 to display "not responding" for long periods out of nowhere only to come back as if nothing happened. Can I control the temp file location?

Best Regards.

SI, please see this post.

Anyone? 10car

If I were you I'd go post in the Support for PC Users forum. Your post will get noticed there. There's also some good people that post there.

In the preference settings there is :-

user data folder locations at bottom of screen. This is where is saves your games etc. But there is also a little tick box that lets you also save any temporary files in the same location.

If you want your temp files saves somewhere else i.e. on another partition...make a folder on the other partition in your case E: ( as you dont want it to use J: ) and then make sure this is set as your user folder, and then tick the save temp files in same location.

See if that works.
