Since I had no icon on my desktop, I went into the Steam folder, down to the Railworks files, and indeed, it had replaced the files I previously deleted (as you instructed.) But hitting the application icon brought up the message, "You must be signed on to Steam." No matter what I do, signing off then back on still has me to "sign on."

The way the system works is that you have to first load Steam, then inside the "Steam Wrapper" you launch RailWorks/TS'12. The first time you run it, it should do some additional installs include the .NET4.0 package.

Super depends on the amount of system RAM plus the amount of cache on your hard drive. Theory it sounds good. But a lot of people say it slows down Windows.
I have an idea about why Intel chips are taking such a hit. Hyperthreading. You don't necessarily have 2 physical cores on a single core CPU, 4 on a dual core, 8 on a quad. The implementation of the multi core support obviously isn't working for a lot of Intel folks. Someone might want to test, turn off Hyperthreading. Just for grins & giggles (or for a little more torture)

Cores 2 and 3 instantly go to 100% load while cores 1 and 4 are used by the game. One for Railworks, one for Physx.
