thelittlefire Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Don't use compact allocation. No point if you use pre-allocate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 ... Don't mess with advanced settings without understanding very clearly what the options do. That means starting by reading the manual, and if it's still not crystal clear, asking someone who knows what the options do (regulars around here).Have you messed with any other settings?
