I know this topic was covered a few years ago but I just recently discovered it and thought to pass it along. In the past I would open up FSX and then bring up the Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Delete), click on the process tab, right click on fsx.exe and assign it a High Priority. This action allows FSX to take precedent over all other programs running and afforded a marked improvement in FSX performance. Unfortunately, this had to be repeated every time I opened FSX since there was no way previously you could "save" the priority setting in the Task Manager. Prio, a free program, allows you to set and save your priorities so you do not have to manually set it every time you boot FSX up.

Why such a impossible to read small font? Yeesh... my eyes hurt!

Unfortunately it comes up with error - I have the wrong OS - 32 or 64 - I have 64 WIN7

 

Sounded good.
