ATC & Throttle response..

This is actually a two faceted question, but I think the two are linked in regards to operational response time on my system.First, my specs: 1.4 Athlon, 512 RAM, ATI 9000 PRO 64MB, AC 97 SoundI am experiencing a LONG time (10-15 seconds) between requests to ATC and their replies. I am also experiencing very slow throttle response (default settings) from idle to wide open throttle, about 3 seconds before a reaction takes place and spool up begins. I would like to know how quickly your ATC responses are as well as your throttle response time. The ATC problem is the most vexing.My FPS are locked at 30 and overall, FS9 runs quite well considering the system I have. ThanksChris
