For one thing, I have always used the "Programs" settings under Performance because I've used the computer for many things, although it's recommended that it be set to Background Services.
I'm loading Cubase SX on a dedicated drive so now I'm free to set it up anyway I need. It will be stripped of everything that doesn't make music. No need for anti-virus software etc. (Wont go on-line )
The other thing that has changed is that I now am installing a 2.8c H/T processor. I have heard good and bad remarks about H/T and Cubase, so I guess I'm after some feedback from those that have similar setups.
Should H/T be enabled when on the music drive, and if so, will I benefit from running priority to Background Services? I hope that H/T is cool, because this is a dual-boot drive, and I REALLY don't want to go in the bios every time I switch drives.
Thanks!!!
Dave
