What should I be looking for in Process Explorer? I didn't want to disable ACPI, but that's the only way that I've found to achieve 1000FPS. There was another thing that I read about if you're running a pure Intel based system (CPU and chipset and board), it is possible, but I don't have that kind of money to shell out on a whim. Any other suggestions, as I'd really like to have a standard install with the best performance possible out of the server?

Or perhaps a different way to attain 1000FPS? attach process explorer to it to see what it's doing when it's spiking. Running windows without ACPI isn't recommended, especially on newer motherboards because ACPI enables quirks to get things to work properly. G.
