No matter what I do, I can't get any fps improvement

Another trick I found on this forum and it does help ...start the game and then minimize to desktop. I use the Windows key on my keyboard to do this. Once there, bring up your Task Manager. On the processes tab look for SH4.exe and right click it. Set you processor to Above Normal. A message will pop up and say this might make you computer unstable. Click ok. Bring up the game and begin play. Doing this adds abotu 5-6 FPS for me. However, I do loose some FPS in ports. No big deal there as I do not spend time in port. Thankfully the devs gave us the option to start outside the ports. So, you do not have to deal with the ports if you do not want to.
