Partition is really slow on windows, but works fine on linux

[StackMasher]

I'm tired of waiting for wine (windows compatibility layer for linux) to catch up and I want to be able to play GTA. So I setup a dual boot with windows 7, and now my hard drives look like this:

Disk /dev/sda: 111.8 GiB, 120034123776 bytes, 234441648 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x55ed4cbc

Device     Boot     Start       End   Sectors  Size Id Type
/dev/sda1            2048 109598719 109596672 52.3G 83 Linux
/dev/sda2  *    109598720 109803519    204800  100M  7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda3       109803520 191518719  81715200   39G  7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda4       191518720 234440594  42921875 20.5G 83 Linux


Disk /dev/sdb: 2.7 TiB, 3000592982016 bytes, 5860533168 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disklabel type: gpt
Disk identifier: 297BAD58-3932-4AFB-AAB8-A0EF2DB6D4D3

Device          Start        End    Sectors   Size Type
/dev/sdb1        2048 5434933247 5434931200   2.5T Linux filesystem
/dev/sdb2  5844533248 5860532223   15998976   7.6G Linux swap
/dev/sdb3  5434933248 5844533247  409600000 195.3G Microsoft basic data

The problem is that when I try to access /dev/sdb3 on windows (which contains the game), it's really slow. File explorer loads for really long when I try to go through a folder, and if I cd onto the drive (using cmd) each command is followed by a long pause. On linux I can access it fine of course

I formatted a usb to ntfs and it seems to work fine

It's also flash media. Why have a separate partition for games if it's not on a separate drive anyway? OS nuke survival?

It is on a seperate drive, windows is on sda2/3 while the games are on sdb3
Also I upgraded to windows 10 and the issue is still there

I misread, I apologize. Anyway, logic would denote that there's something up with the drive itself. Even if it's in healthy condition, the overhead from Windows could be causing entirely too much I/O. What are your other specs? That's pertinent information as well.

What the hell is a "Microsoft basic data" partition? It sounds like fat16 or something.
