I have FSX on a Velociraptor along with aircraft add-ons and UTXOn my WD 640 drive I have the OS along with GEX and Active Sky AdvancedIn trying to optimize the performance of FSX with the Velociraptor, I would like to know if TrackIr should be installed on the Velociraptor or is putting on the other drive ok?

You can put it on the other drive: once TrackIR is loaded, it's loaded and it won't acces the HD like FSX will acces textures... which also means GEX should have been installed on the Velociraptor... at least the textures that come with GEX. Everything that FSX has to access during flying should be put on that Velo.

Thanks for that. I'll put TrackIR on the other drive.As far as putting GEX on a different drive, I did that because I found a comment pertaining to that as follows.Other programs are NOT accessed "real time" while FSX is running. Examples are GEX and FEX. They replace textures in FSX from an external interface you run PRIOR to running FSX. There is no reason whatsoever to have to install GEX or FEX on the same drive as FSX. They could be installed on an external hard drive, the interface run to replace the FSX textures, then FSX runs without accesssing anything in the GEX or FEX installations during your FSX session.What do you think?

Ah, so only the interface is installed on another drive. That's okay as long as the texture are placed on the Velo, which they apperently are. (BTW You know you do not have to run GEX (or FEX) everytime before starting FSX?)

Yes, I am aware of thatThanks for the comments
