Windows XP x64 edition and games

I thought I would post a bit of information that maybe helpful.

If your game seems to be running at double speed on x64, you can try adding this to your boot.ini /USEPMTIMER

It has to do with processor throttling technologies causing the
QueryPerformanceFrequency API to return values that cause the game to
run too fast

( such as returning that the processor is running at 700mhz instead of 2Ghz )

I recommend creating a backup copy of your boot entry incase something
goes wrong.

XP includes a handy tool to edit your boot.ini called
bootcfg and I recommend that you use it.

In my case I used

bootcfg /copy /id 1

bootcfg /raw "/USEPMTIMER /noexecute=optin /fastdetect" /id 2

I hope it helps.
