Sir; In another post you mentioned a possible workaround for the FR decay as the following:mind telling me if you're running in Full Screen or in 2D mode, when that happens? Also - if I may venture a guess - you are probably going into the VC and back out, and THEN it happens, right?I have a possible workaround for you, as this seems FS-related:Try clicking on a different window altogether in 2D mode, and then coming back into your FS. Frame Rates should go back up to their normal values.What do you mean a different window altogether in 2D mode? You mean a side view window of the 2D cockpit or opening another application? Should we minimize FS while doing this or leave it up? Thanks...by the way, still waiting on the email d/l link as well.

Krister-mind telling me if you're running in Full Screen or in 2D mode, when that happens? Also - if I may venture a guess - you are probably going into the VC and back out, and THEN it happens, right?I have a possible workaround for you, as this seems FS-related:Try clicking on a different window altogether in 2D mode, and then coming back into your FS. Frame Rates should go back up to their normal values.We're still investigating this - if we have some news, I'll let you know.CheersLefteris KalamarasPrecision Manuals Development Group Krister Tue Jul-01-03 10:24 PM Member since Mar 07th 2002 136 posts #5659, "RE: You just gotta laugh..."In response to Reply # 4 Lefteris,I'll check that out. I now tried using a cockpit where there is 2D view only and the fps is then stable and high - no problem whatsover. I get about 20 fps with UT at 100% and running 1280x960x32 in both external and cockpit view.Another important thing that has been noted by a gentleman on this forum is that if you switch to the 737 from an airplane where the nav instruments aren't turned on, the nav radios won't work in the 737. So either assign a button to turn them on or switch from a plane where it is on. I believe also Iron Knuckles "suffers" from this.Anyway, I love this plane already and your attention to the details, the sound, everything is amazing!!!/Krister Krister Tue Jul-01-03 11:01 PM Member since Mar 07th 2002 136 posts #5695, "RE: You just gotta laugh..."In response to Reply # 4 Lefteris,your observation is correct. I started up an aircraft (with the vc and cabin) and since I immediately was in 2D mode I had good fps - around 20. I then changed to VC and it dropped to 7-8. I then went back to 2D view and clicked on Microsoft Messenger that I have open on my second monitor. Returning to MSFS and 2D view the fps was back again. Also note that the fps dropped when I went to outside view (spot)!!!/Krister Anthony MertonPrecision Manuals Developmenthttp://www.precisionmanuals.com

No, I THINK he means one of the other panel views, ie., zoomed or landing view.

Ok Pete. Anthony, I don't have a second monitor.

If you're running in 3d mode, I suggest you get out of it, cliclk anywhere on the desktop, task bar, and go back again...If not, click on the task bar... any icon...I hope it will fix it !Really, really, going this time :-)anthonyAnthony MertonPrecision Manuals Developmenthttp://www.precisionmanuals.com
