Would changing compatibility settings increase performance?
"Run in 256 colors" This sounds like less complex textures so better frames.
"Run in 640x480" I know for a fact that this helps performance, but you can almost count the pixels on your screen because of how crap it looks.
"Disable visual themes" I think this includes a lot of options in "change windows appearance and performance".
"Disable desktop composition" I know for a fact that this is an option to increase windows performance.
"Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" No idea what this is but I have a high DPI mouse so maybe dunno.
I don't know for sure what the effects of these are, especially running it in compatibility mode.
