I tried to register for support but I did not get the activation email. The plane is amazing! well worth the wait great job to PMDG. With that said I had a couple issues. First off, if I choose the time of day as dawn, I have missing texture issues such as the external lighting knobs missing. Second, if I so much as open a menu such as to change the weather or open the flight planner, etc, all the textures crash and I have to restart FSX. Also I can't seem to get above 8 FPS. Also the only addons I'm running are Ultimate Traffic II, Ultimate Terrain, and Active Sky X here are my specsDell XPS 9100I7 930 2.8 GHzwindows 7 64bit8.0gb ramATI Radeon HD 5670

John- I STRONGLY recommend that you open the introduction document, and go through the steps we recommend to optimize your FSX setup. If you are getting 8FPS on an I7, something is wrong with your setup. We have very similar specs and I am seeing 30+ unless I park the airplane at a known frame hog airport.

Thanks for the help Robert, that made a huge difference!
