**animal** · 02-03-2011 16:12

hay all

after getting to terms that the 11.3 will be out when its out id like to start a new game

a few weeks ago my Star rating was 4* performance and 5 speed with 5 leagues

fast forward to today

its half a star performance 1 star speed with 1 league.

its a laptop and ive had a problem before where it was running on battery mode but thats not the case now. ive heard of this Clear the appdata files and that because this will speed it up.
can anyone run me through whats required todo this

cheers

Seem as your not moaning for a change i'll help

Go to mycomp/localdisk/user/your user name/appdata/roaming/sportsinteractive then delet the fm11 folder in there

you mite need to turn hidden folders on for your system if it is't already

What else is running in background as the performace rating takes that into account aswell

**animal** · 02-03-2011 16:31

hehe aye ill stop that now was childish and the game is fantastic i wasn't saying it was terrible hence why i play it more then any other game i own. just fustrated

Aye nothing else in the background ive turned it all off
hidden files are not hidden and will do this just now.

whats in these files anyway - anything important like save games ?

No its just the fm cache folder it will reset your prefrences though

have you tried game booster at all? It does work a treat to be honest.

**animal** · 02-03-2011 16:35

Ah cool ok ill give this ago..

if si havnt made this information a sticky i suggest they do because ive seen many people have problems with game speed before

**animal** · 02-03-2011 16:39

Because i use steam it has its own Cache folder i delete that every few weeks.. suppose ill remove that to

**Blue_magic** · 02-03-2011 16:43

I use game booster and it helps in a big way.

**animal** · 02-03-2011 16:47

can you explain game booster or where to get it ?

**Indi75** · 02-03-2011 16:48

Check your laptop power options. Most of the time you run on reduced power unless on AC power to conserve battery. Dell, Sony, HP et al will all have some rubbish installed to overlay that which Windows already does, and this means that an unplugged laptop tends to preserve battery over pushing performance.

have a look on this website mate

http://www.iobit.com/gamebooster.html

its very easy to use and it works a treat.

**Blue_magic** · 02-03-2011 16:59

Just googel 'gamebooster v2' it just shuts down programs that run in the background. Free up ram and so forth.

**animal** · 02-03-2011 17:23

ill give this a go thanks

**hhhonlyfan** · 02-03-2011 17:29

**animal** · 02-03-2011 17:46

**Filke** · 02-03-2011 17:48

ive not got it it freed up 200mb of Dedicated memory < dont understand this part sorry .

**hhhonlyfan** · 02-03-2011 17:51

yes gamebooster added around 20% performance for myself personally and backdoored if you mean cracked yes.

**Filke** · 02-03-2011 17:54

I do. No harm in creating a faster gaming atmosphere

I have a more-than-good-enough PC, which runs 30-40 leagues without any strain whatsoever, and I still use it, just because it's that easy.

**Filke** · 02-03-2011 17:57

thanks just one more question, should i use it all the time or only when game is running , thanks to all

**hhhonlyfan** · 02-03-2011 17:58

i didnt need it as speed was good but honestly run it even if your happy will notice a difference. i was skeptical aswell but i never play without gamebooster and drag it on the screen to it will automatically load it when loading a game

**Filke** · 02-03-2011 18:02

lol you got infracted for piracy

i installed program and it want to download some software should i let it download them ?

**rancer890** · 02-03-2011 18:15

Gamebooster is good if you have a slow computer, but does minimal improvement for laptops that aren't minimum specs.

That program made me reinstall my windows 7, so make sure you know what you're doing with it...and don't download everything it asks you...

**Filke** · 02-03-2011 18:32

its really good thing, i can see some inprovement.

**CaptainPlanet** · 02-03-2011 18:33

If you know how to use a PC well, gamebooster is epically pointless.
