I run an AMD triple core Phenom processor on a Gigabyte Mobo, and 4gigs of ram! I am also running Windows XP Pro. What settings should I have on the video card to maximize performance in FS2004?I have already followed some guidelines from this forum on tweaking XP!Thanks,Barry

Barry,That was an odd question. Do you really have performance problems with that hardware in FS9? I would have expected a question like "How do I get the best image quality in FS9?"Anyway. To maximize performance you should
  • Reduce any AA and AF setting.
  • Enable trilinear optimiziation.
  • Reduce texture filtering quality.
  • Set vertical sync off.

You have to test different settings to balance off performance vs image quality, but reducing AA and AF will certainly increase performance.
