FSX and Windows 7 64b

<< < (2/2)

EHM-2387 Eric-Jan:
I have FSX running on W7 Home Premium 64, an i7-860 (2.8MHz) CPU, 6GB RAM, two 1TB Harddisks, of which one is dedicated to FS (FS9, FSX, XP9, AND XP10 ;) ), with NVIDEA GTX 640 1GB GFX card. A top-line system when I bought it, but considered mid-range nowadays ...
When I fly the Aerosoft DA-20 4X in the Netherlands, with the full NL-2000 scenery installed, framerates drop down to about 20, which is still well flyable. In other parts of the world, without the addon scenery, I hit 40 up to 60 fps.

I did not do anything special (no tweaking with dll's or the likes) other than install the Accelleration addon (which equals Service Pack 2, performance wise, if I remember well). So maybe there's your solution? Install at least SP2 ... http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8986
