Slow loading textures, please help!

Hey everyone, First time posting here, sorry if it is in the wrong spot. So here is the situation, I recently decided to switch from 9 to X. I have had every issue under the sun, stutters, blurries, you name it. So after numerous tweaks and texts to a friend of mine, I am stumped.I have searched and searched, been reading a ton of different things. I originally was fairly pleased and surprised with how my sim was running, as I never thought I would be running X on my computer. So after a while I decided to enhance my sim with nVidia Inspector. Once I did the tweaks, I was stuttering. After numerous tweaks in the FSX.CFG, I was running smooth with no stutters, but my ground textures weren't loading. So I did a few more tweaks, tried affinitymask, texturemaxload, texture_bandwidth_multi, etc... but I still am having many issues with loading ground textures. My friend send me a link to the Bojote FSX.CFG tuning site, which worked for me in eliminating the stutters, but not the blurries and slow loading ground. Here are my system spec's followed by my CFG (sorry if the CFG wasn't needed)- Thanks in advance.

Your stutters IMO are caused by the two values in the bufferpools section. Poolsize and rejectthreshold. get rid of rejectthreshold and put in poolsize=30000. For your slow textures loading that is most likely a hardware issue. A common fix to that is a quick HDDor an SSD.

Sorry to tell you this, but your system is not powerful enough to run FSXat anything but lower settings... a quick hard-drive is not going to solve this..

not going to solve but would help.

Try setting texture_bandwidth_multi and texturemaxload to 40

You cant have bufferpools=0 AND reject_threshold= in at the same time! Bufferpools=0 is not a good tweak anyway and is likely to lead to crashes even on more powerful hardware.
