My current values for those are: Preemptive (Low-Latency Desktop) 1000 Hz timer freq Did you mean tickless system with "noticks"? I have this enabled ATM And with extX I assume you meant the file systems? I'm aware that ext3 is not very efficient with large files, but I can't/don't want to use ext4 yet because I need to access the partition from windows. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla' Error 96: Found dead mouse in hard drive C:
