I have a "killer" system for today's games, but in most that I play, there are far too many stutters coming out for no reason. Keep in mind I say stutters NOT frame skip, because in reality the games run damn smooth and the FPS never drops.
My system is as shown:
AXP 1600
Epox 8kHA+
256DDR
GF3 Ti200 clocked at GF3 levels
15GB 7200rpm drive and 6.4GB slave 5400rpm
SBLIVE 5.1 DE
WinXP
In games like Red Faction, and Medal of Honor AA Single Player not Multi, the games really lag at many moments, lag as in stutters a lot, and in RF online there is also this, even though my old P2 350 with Voodoo 3 2000 was not doing this in RF!
It seems to me the drive is accessing far too much or something like that, but I would like insight on what should I do with WinXP options to make sure I don't get these stutters? I am sure it isn't the card or anything because any game runs smooth at max, and MOHAA online IS ALWAYS smooth without a stutter (except in beginning to get the card loading the movements into memory) or frame skip.

The other day I heard an explosion from the other side of town.... It was a 486 booting up...
