Hi Steve !

The CPU info is not enough. What video card do you use, how much RAM you have, and how much gates did you installed for the airports...or do you have default scenery there ?

Also is the framerate means from cockpit, from Virtual Cockpit, or from outside view ?

EHM-1864 Steve:
Hi
Bit thick when it comes to computers hope this right info

amd atholon(tx)xp
1.10ghz
1gig ram
navidia gforce 6600gt

default scenery,
low frame rates in cockpit view and outside view, not used virtual, but can check next time.


thanks again
regards
steve

Steve,

Are you still using two monitors? This will probably have some impact although I have never tried it.

Also If you go in to the Display settings on FS2004, Go to the scenery tab and set the global scenery to "Minimal" then go to the aircraft tab and set the global aircraft quality to minimal and do the same for the weather. Then go to the Hardware Tab and make sure you Hardware is identified correctly turn off Render to texture, Transform and lighting, Anti Aliasing and Filtering. If this improves your frame rates start turning up the settings one by one till you get an acceptable level of performance and quality of graphics.

Hope this helps,

Weather and traffic are biggies on frame rates often, as is use of the GPS.
