TheAmishMan Posted February 16, 2021 Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) Sorry I just started using big box and lunch box and have about 8,000 games loaded in. However the load time is kind of ridiculous especially in big box. Once I'm actually inside the program I'm able to move pretty swiftly, but specifically starting and changing settings such as moving from the 'manage themes' page back to the main settings or even just starting it up it takes about 2 minutes for it to load. I have a significantly overpowered rig (rtx 3080, ryzen 3700, 32gb of ram, installed on a ssd) but everything is still going really slow. Anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it Edited February 16, 2021 by TheAmishMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it Its certainly going to be something specific to your systems im afraid. I am on a RTX 2080 super and a 3700X and 32GB of 3000 DDR4 ram, also installed to a SSD. Going into and out of menu's in Bigbox is instantaneous, and startup time is less than ten seconds with around 11,000 games in my setup. Id try closing all programs, and as many background tasks as you can and test again, if its much better we can determine if another app is interfering and causing issues.

Damn that's what i was worried about. Might try boring in safe mode to see if there is any change. I doubt this is it but is there any possibility that it has to do something with the fact that I initially installed it on one hard drive then move the installation over to another folder? I actually did rerun the installer and then just copy all the files however it was having this lag effect even before the second install when it was just on a regular hard drive instead of an SSD. It's literally 2 minutes every single time that this is happening Edited February 16, 2021 by TheAmishMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Launchbox is a portable app, it doesnt really install as such it just extracts all its needed files to the location you specified in the installer. Nothing is added to the registry either, and you can freely move it between drives, and even other PC's assuming they have the prerequisites like ,NET core and directx, etc installed.

TheAmishMan Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) So I diagnose the problem but it's a weird one, it's apparently an issue with the DAC that I use. I'm going to try to check the drivers and see if there's something I can do to fix that but that's clearly the problem, after disconnecting that it booted up right away and it was easily to get in and out of the settings as many times as I wanted Apparently others have had this issue - I have a FIIO E17k, tried repairing the driver, gonna see if that works Edited February 16, 2021 by TheAmishMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAmishMan Posted February 16, 2021 Author Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) Even with Not having the DAC set as the audio device, it still takes forever to load. As soon as I disconnect, it fires right up. Any suggestions? UPDATE: The previous linked post had a second page i missed. Disabling the HID solved it!

Disabling the specific driver related to it under the HID was what solved the problem. Looking for the HID-compliant consumer control device For those who find this thread in the future and are looking for how I figured it out which one to disable, the easiest thing is to click on properties for the driver and it should show you something along the lines of USB input. It could be named something different. But what I did was I had eight devices in total under the human interface devices category that were HIDs like the post that I linked above says. Then what I did was I viewed the properties of each one and at least was able to tell which ones were connected to other devices like my keyboard and mouse. Then when I did was one by one disabled the other devices and then I would unplug the DAC and see if the disabled driver was still connected. when I found the one that would disconnect when I unplugged the DAC then I knew that that was the correct one. As soon as I disabled that HID it went from 3 minutes of loading to literally 5 seconds Edited April 5, 2021 by TheAmishMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
