This is a post I have seen on another board that has worked for me so I thought I would pass it along for others to try.

"Turn Vsync off! I heard there is some kind of bug in pure which involves your fps.
Force it off in the nvidia control panel and you'll have no problems with the loading times anymore"

I hope it works for you guys as it has for me. I don't have the long load time waiting for the beginning title movie to start or after events. Good luck

I didn't see or notice any difference with VSYNC forced on or forced off.  You're all high, I'm thinkin - faster load times = get a console!

You don't have to do Alt Tab...just click with the mouse or hit the Esc button to get through some of the loading screens.  Menus are FAST! As far as loading maps/races...i see about 30 - 40 seconds from track select to countdown race begins.

Seems normal to me.  System is nothing special.

Confirmed here, forcing vsync off fixed the menu load times. The game still takes quite a while to start initially even skipping all the videos, but I can forgive that. This game is so much more playable now. :D

Ahhhh man works like a charm, this is awesome! Thanks a lot for sharing this!

EDIT: Almost perfect, all the loading is fast (e.g.: menu, startup etc..), except the level loading time. It's still taking like 3 minutes at least to load a level.....darn

Hello, there are some people experiencing very long loading times. Every time I start the game, the loading just freezes and I have to wait or minimize the game for a while. Loading times of the races itselves is also pain in the ####. Where´s the problem and how can I solve it? Are you gonna release some patch which would deal with it?

I was having the same problem - submitted my directx diagnostic report as requested and followed up with a phone call to Disney tech support. I was expecting the worst but worked with a very helpful gent who helped me isolate my particular problem to a conflict with Dell Support Center. I uninstalled the app and load times, while still somewhat long, are much much better and makes the game playable.

Suggest that anyone having this issue take the time and give them a call - the guy said that I was the first one to actually call in and let them troubleshoot. Perhaps if more of us call in, they will get the message that there is something going on with the app. I know that it's very new but still I can't see any patching or problem acknowledgement unless more of us call in and actually report the problems.
