This may be silly ,but this also could help for those who doesn't or have been blessed by having a powerful and new machines (PCs) as I do

Due to this let just call from ,My own point of view  (a discovery) some of you may call ,Ignorancy ,but just to share that ,Both things came out to my life at the same time

1) My own Internet conection with a modem at 550kbps
2) FSX demo

well,the thing is. I hit the FSX ,with for the first time without internet conect it( on purpose I disconet the LAN cable) and I discover that runs better than ever,

When I install the first time because by that time I didn't had internet so I recorded in a cyber coffee public internet in a cd,I remember that I could apresiate and considered that It runs as fs9  I post something Like this ,here before,Gosh I runs well ,I said

,then later I began to doubt that This machine won't be able to deal with it due that the game became slower,and to be realistic (Ill repeat this again) ,This is a pentium 3-800mhz with a nvidia ge force 4 128mg at 2x,I though Maybe I overestimate this old machinewhat I didn't realize was the  slower and other issues  became with the internet

For those who have an lan ethernet & are connect it with a broadband ,try to make this,disconect your LAN cable and run your FSX again ,check out the different,Of course this goes to those as me who can't afford a new PC only and have a lot of issues with this new software,

I suspect it, because ALSO my old FS9 use to runs real good and also became Just a little slower even with my favorites add-on planes became slower and lot of visible framerates

I thought It was SP2 ,no it wasn't, I was very sceptical about sp2 ,but I can tell you after I made this ""Discovery""I was very suprise, My fs9 have a texture details NEVER SEEN BEFORE BY ME! I guest I was really wrong about sp2....

I still don't know ,I don't have any downloading programs even once I just had XP, fsx & fs9 and the lan cable plug in,I was the same thing

maybe like always I just talk too much but Im posting this to share to some of you,I don't know maybe this could help any of you too,or maybe my lan pci card is making a conflict,this its just a theory,But un-plug this cable won't  harm,to limited computers,just try.. Wink

PS, This is only my personal experience still as theory,but indeed I see quite differece when I plug back the cable

hmmm, never tryed that, but could it be related to any spyware or something like that that activates when you plug your cable and activates it removing resources from your pc...

anyway, I might be wrong as I don't know your system.. Wink
