ME1: Faster Normandy Elevator?
Hello, this is kind of a quality-of-life request, but when I played the original PC release of the first game, the elevator that went down to engineering was significantly faster than it was on conso...

It sounds like you booted into Save mode, that is in fact something different than a "clean boot".
Inside a Save Boot no drivers are loaded and so the entire game is indeed very much slower.
Inside a "Clean Boot" all drivers are loaded, but third party applications and services are disabled and virus scanners should be disabled additionally.

Oh, you're right. That's exactly what I did.
I followed the instructions more closely (with some help from a friend) and managed to load my computer in a clean boot state as instructed.
Started the game, got on the elevator, and clocked 19 seconds on my phone's stopwatch from when I pushed the button to when I regain control of my Shepard. Unfortunately still slow...
I'm gonna update my status once I get the game installed on my SSD (it should be coming in the post tomorrow).

Update: After transferring the game to an SSD, I now clock 10 seconds instead of 15... at least it's an improvement!
That is a rather good improvement. 👍
