System detection tool

Seaman_Hornsby · 07-02-10, 11:52 AM

Question Kaleuns: I've been running SH5 for a while now and have just re-installed to see if I can improve the game's framerate stuttering. I just finished the re-install and noticed that the Ubi system detection tool reports only 2Gb system RAM on my 6Gb-equipped Win Vista-64 system.

Anyone else experience similar? Is the tool unable to detect memory correctly on 64 bit systems? I'm wondering if this is part of the problem, that the game is not using all available memory.

Very interesting. Hope you get an answer.

Yes, it would be nice to know if this is just a quirk of running 32-bit SH5 on a 64-bit OS, or if something has gone goofy on my system.

If some of you kind 64-bit Kaleuns would be willing to run the Ubi detection tool (in the SH5/Support/Detection Tool directory) on your 3-4 and up Gb systems and let us know if it accurately reports your RAM amount?

I'm running Win7 64bit.
My system have 8 GB Ram.
DetectionTool: 4088 MB Ram.

PS 4 GB Ramdisk. I don't know this make sense. I don't want to deactivate atm, maybe later for testing.

Thanks for that report.

Interesting results.

Edit: Oh noes! I've made it to Bangkok!
