    We know what the issue is...  It's due to the way the way Linda is reading local variables (LVARS) out the Dash 8.  

    With other planes, we don't have this issue with Linda.  It's only with the Dash 8 due to the way its programmers coded it.
     


     

    Okay so does that mean setting Linda to "yes" in the cfg options has no effect then? Because it seems to make not difference whether it is set to yes or no (at least in p3dv5). The only change comes when Linda is taken out of the sim completely like we discussed above.

    Anytime I have clouds my fps generally takes a hit. I pay the price and use 8xSSAA because some of the addon aircraft do not have high res instruments and its hard to read. Fortunately I can get away with this with a 2080ti, but this adds a lot of heat and usage by using such high levels of anti aliasing. Even the FSLabs A320 instruments look blurry unless I use some sort of image sharpening and high anti aliasing.

    How can I install in p3d v5? What registry is needed for installer to not error with must enter full path?

    Follow the instructions for installing FSX addons into p3dv2/3 (just make sure your directory path points to p3dv5). Backup your registry before doing this to be safe. You will need to manual add the scenery to your library within p3d as well.

    Disable Linda completely for your test.

    Do not have it load.

    Let me know then.

     

    You should be able to stop Linda from loading via the DLL.xml.

     

    Alright it looks like Linda may be the problem here. Disabling completely seems to work. Perhaps a compatibility issue with Linda itself, then?

    Are you positive Linda was completely shut down before loading the Dash 8?

    Are you using Spad Next or any other program similar to Linda?

    We know this issue this is associated with the way hardware programs like Linda/Spad next read LVARS in the Dash 8.

    They collide with the way we read LVARs.

     

    Linda starts with p3d, but I automatically close it before loading the dash 8. Same thing happened tonight with the readouts. Altimeter settings,V1 speed, anti ice warnings in non icing conditions, "1000 to go repeated over and over", MDA being called on the ground, etc. seem to be the ones that get missed the most. It's almost like something is not getting read from the SDK or something. Not a deal breaker but it would be nice to get to the bottom of this. No SPAD or similar programs running.

    Are you absolutely sure it is coming through the headphones? My PC was doing that and it turned out to be one of the very thick braided connection wires having shifted position somewhat so that occasionally it was just skimming the edge of one of the fans in the case. It only made a noise when that cooling fan got some speed up if the computer was under a heavy load, which initially made me think it was something other than just a bit of friction on a wire that wasn't cable-tied fully out of the way.

    Yeah I am positive its coming through my headphones. Is a bad sound driver a possibility? That's the only other thing I can think of.

    Hello,

    I keep getting intermitten buzzing sounds in my headphones when running p3d. I believe it is the sound that you get when your cpu is overloaded or you get a BSOD. Not sure of the technical term, but as far as cpu usage goes I have core 0 at 100% and the remaining sitting around 20-30%. Not exactly overloaded, but I am wondering what is causing this noise. For reference it occurred last when using the PMDG T7.

    I didn't. What you may need to do is to a "fake" P3D v4 install and then copy the folders into P3D v5. It was a while ago when I installed it and don't really remember the details 😞

    Yep that did it. Created a backup of my registry and was able to trick the installer into thinking it was FSX. Thanks!

    Tried installing this into p3d's folder but I receive the error "you must enter a full path with drive letter or a unc path in the form..." Do I need to have FSX installed on my system for this to install?

    Others in this thread haven't had that experience. Stock settings if MCE is on, can increase temp. MCE is an overclock of sorts of course, and when boards first come out the auto voltage is often excessive. 

    Upper 80's doing what? In a stress test not unusual, especially if running AVX. 

    Stress test was hitting the 90’s for me. Using P3D was high 70’s-low 80’s. I also live in a warmer climate so I don’t know if that was the contributing factor here or not. That was actually one of the reasons I switched to an AIO.

    I don't have a 10900k but you might get some clues from Nick's guide here:

    https://www.simforums.com/forums/building-a-10900k-system-and-clocking-it_topic64274.html

    I used an older guide of his to build and overclock my current system. It has been rock solid stable. I plan on using this guide to build my next one.

    Ted

    I noticed that a lot of the bios settings in this guide are not in my bios. Is it possible that Gigabyte has a lot of these settings listed under a different name than the ones mentioned in the guide?
