July 19, 201411 yr Hello there, lately I have noticed that my FPS has gone a bit worse than usual. I tried lowering scenery and all that kind of stiff. But, I did notice that when I hit the "Q" button in FSX, the sound mutes but my FPS goes up (in some cases, its up to 15FPS!) ? What could this even be? I of course wan't to fly with sounds but it looks like there's no way of solving this problem. And yes, I have tried to update my Realtek drivers, but still no difference at all. It would be much appreciated for any suggestions, thanks. EM E.M .

I have downloaded in the past a couple of aircraft that had sound folders over 50MB. and it was like sitting at KLAX-photoreal and FPS dropping to 3 or 4.

July 19, 201411 yr It may be a PC issue. Most pcs use the onboard sound, which in older PC's uses teh CPU to process the sound which is stealing the cpu cycles from fsx.If that is so, go but a cheap sound card, will make a big difference.
