1.4 Demo: metrics(fps) bug, negative numbers

Note that this is from the downloaded demo, and not from a compiled SDK executable.
After hearing that the TLK was in the downloadable demo, I thought I'd check it out. Once I was in and running around I decided to check out the frame rate, and then suddenly noticed something weird.
The fps was jumping all over the place, going from positive values to large negative numbers.
Heres a screenshot, where I came out of the great hall, and it jumped down to a very low value.

edit: also, I'm not sure if this is some setting from a previous install on my computer or not, but the default install directory offered to me was:
C:\Torque\TSE\Torque Shader Demo
Which obviously is a bit odd.

Yes, I got similar FPS wierdness using the pre-compiled .EXE that came with the 1.4 installer. If you compile the engine, the problem should go away. At least it did for me.
I hope that helps,
