3-8 second lag during gamin'

Sorry for dredging up this old post, however I am having the same problems as listed here. My laptop only has a C-Drive and no D-Drive is there any way an updated version of the HDD Loader program without D:/temp required? Thank you.

Hi lilbalko.

Sure. Please wait a bit - will post within 24 hours.

Hi lilbalko,

attached updated app for you. Use "HDDLoader" folder from attached zip file. There is "Files.txt", where it is possible to specify files (with full path), which must be created by PHDDLoader.exe regularly. Just delete second line in this file and PHDDLoader.exe will not access d:\temp. The second "LoadIntervalSecond.txt" allows to specify period at which PHDDLoader.exe must create files (in other words - touch the hard disks). Default is 30 seconds but any interval can be specified.
If any problems let me know.

Thank you kindly for your swift response! I did as instructed without issue, and will be back with a status update as soon as I have a chance to test it in action. I set the time interval to one second, is this going to cause longer than normal load times or performance problems?

Hi lilbalko,

The previous version of phddloader.exe (posted here almost 1 year ago) has interval of 1 second and as i understand it causes no problems (otherwise there may be additional posts on this thread). I do not think accessing every second two files (1Kb for each file) should put any, visible by user, performance impact on the system. I use 30 seconds interval cause firstly i tried 30 seconds interval and this interval solves the problem for me.
