markoxley:where have you set your detail sliders? (far left, far right, somewhere in the middle)clouds percentage?AI percentage?which aircraft? (FS default or addon? which addons?)where are the frames 15? which airports? in the air? at what altitude? in which weather situations?are you running other programs when FS is running (ie, explorer, anti-virus, etc.)--

Sometimes in the air 15 and airports e.g. Glasgow 15I Have changed all the sliders and this makes no difference, but they are not set to max on all.Weather set to 50 miles and visiabilty set to 60. 100% for 3d and max vis. I am also using low end clouds one above the lowest on Active Sky.I am using project opensky 737 800 and Ultimate boeing panel.AI traffic is set to 60%Hope this helps.Mark

It's a pain, but delete your fs9.cfg. Helped me go from under 20 to locked at 35.

Hi Mark,Something is wrong here. You should be getting way better performance then that. I would look to system drivers and mb drivers and make sure those are up to date.Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/

All drivers for MB and Graphics card are the latest off the web.Could it be my graphics card is not setup right.ThanksMark

This is probably stupid, on my part, r u sure frame/sec are not locked at 15 or 20?Dick ReaMCA 372

Delete your config file.Run antivirus, spyware etc to make sure you are clean thenturn off all antivirus, spyware, auto updates etc before you fly.If you are running any of the megascenery add-ons, they really slowed my system down so I stopped using them.

Have done everything and now only get 24-25 frames on Max Detail.All my other games run fine but FS2004 won

[Guest rgloster]

Try installing your graphic card again. I once had a similar problem.Hope it helps :-).

nVidia graphics drivers are not optimized- download nTune (freeware) and set up under that.It helped my issues a LOT- but I'm running under Vista.Best-Carl F. Avari-Cooper BAW0225http://online.vatsimindicators.net/980091/523.png
