Strange Behaviors following SSD Installation

I should start by saying I haven't really used a computer for anything except web browser/glorified typewriter since Dos and KALI were in vogue, so I may have done some stupid things. I'm going to include info that may be extraneous because I don't want to leave out anything important.

I recently decided to upgrade to an SSD and went with a Kingston 128g, because I bought it on a whim at staples. After installing the drive it was recognized in BIOS but not in windows 7. The installation software that came with it was worthless. I went to disk management and found the unallocated drive and created a new volume, quick format NTFS. Then I did a clean install of windows 7 to the drive using an image mounted in Daemon Tools, as my DVD drive is currently not working. I then did a clean install of the game I am boxing - Path of Exile - and a clean install of ISBoxer/Innerspace. Then I migrated the required files from the old installation as per the FAQ.

My team was/is working perfectly on my old drive and old installation on a 7200rpm HD. I had manually edited the productionconfig file of the game to set textures far below the minimum selectable in game, to get good performance from 5 clients simultaneously. I could run them all at 30fps this way.

When I launch my team from the SSD install, 3 of the 5 clients launch with heavily reduced textures. Two of them launch with the minimum selectable textures in game. If I launch the client myself through innerspace -> default game configuration, it launches with the reduced textures. I can then do this 4 more times, and THEN launch my team, and they all will be on the pre opened clients. However, they all struggle to maintain 15fps. This is even worse if I just launch my team and it makes the 2 clients be higher textures then I had specified.

So my questions are how do I "fix" innerspace launching two of the clients at textures above what I had specified?

Is there any point to "fixing" this issue if they are already running at a far lower fps when manually launched vs my old drive?

Why would I be getting worse performance from the SSD?

I realize a couple of those perhaps aren't directly related to ISBoxer/Innerspace, but I'm hoping you might still have some insight. Thanks very much.

edit: I am at work and do not currently have access to my isboxer configuration. I will upload it when I get home if this will be helpful.

SSD won't affect general FPS, just loading times. If you're getting worse performance, then presumably they are using different POE settings than you had them using before.

Two of them launch with the minimum selectable textures in game.

This is because they are saved that way in the in-game settings. ISBoxer is virtualizing the configuration file, meaning that they each save their settings independently from the others. With a fresh install or new Characters, the Virtual File is copied from the game's normal settings without ISBoxer. You can reset them by opening up the folder they're saved in (wherever the POE settings files are usually stored, there will be one there for each of your ISBoxer Characters) and simply deleting the per-Character files

Thanks a ton. Completely solved my issues. Would never have figured it out on my own.
