I just upgraded to a nice new Iwill DDR board with a 1.2gb Tbird over the weekend.
After installing it, when I ran it and installed all the necessary drivers and stuff, I sat to play my first game.
I realised that the game wasn't running smoothly. There was a noticeable jerkiness in it. Not all games did this though. Investigations proved that only when the CD-rom drive was being used for cd music tracks or reading, did such jerkiness happen.
Checking the system monitor showed that by just running a music cd, it used up to 25-40% of the CPU time. Does anyone have a fix for this? This didn't happen to my previous P3.
