hey I am new to the whole seen, but this game has me wanting to figure evrything out. I was thinking on the idea of partitioning my hard drive and install a second windows, bare bones it to run games only, in hopes of a better performance. I have a million processes going on normally, this would have to help! I have a high perfomance machine but still get framerate problems

. Or beter yet can you run cfs2 on dos??? without windows? I am well aware of the other hardware mods that will boost performance, was just seeking alternatives
