Poor FS2004 Frame rate

<< < (2/2)

EHM-1703 Philip:
Sorry mate,

You can find a better equiped sytem than your Brothers Laptop second hand for a reasonable price on EBAY, especially one that is capable of running FS2004 at a reasonable level. My mate got a 2.8ghz P4 Dell system with 256mb RAM & a 160gb HDD last week for 65 quid. It runs FS2004 fine, although it hates UT and Far Cry. Get a desktop, you can upgrade it gradually when you can afford to then.

Good luck

EDIT* Do me a favour. press CTRL+ALT+DEL. In the bottom left hand corner of the task manager it tells you how many processes you have running. You Should try and keep this to below 30 on your system, certainly no higher than 40. Try shutting down some of the processes that are not used whilst flying. One to watch especially is Norton Anti Virus. It is a little begger when it comes to eating your clock cycles.
