I have a brand new, high horsepower, super video card computer, built for gaming. Yet, as I fly along, even slowly, the ground scenery is "building itself" right in front of my a/c. Any suggestions ??

Sullyvan I notice you've posted this in the FS9 forum as well so I'm guessing you're getting a jam in the system. As well as your system specs how much HD space do you have available? Also are there lots of background programs running?

I've seen this question many times.

FS has it's limitations on the amount of scenery data that is available at any given time, but it sounds like this guy is just short of processing power. More than likely scenery updating is being polled on the hard drive itself, rather than in RAM.
