look around, tweaks are everywhere. there are some more here, a great site i jsut found : www.fsxmission.com...you gotta register, but its a great site-- sure to be full of helpful stuff.

as for your performance, upgrade that RAM. with 1gig you are operating at bare minimum standards.

When I get FSX, I'll be happy if I can get even 15 FPS...

Your FPS should have some qualifiers..

I can get as low as 10fps at O'hare flying the 747 and 30fps flying the Baron at 12,000 feet.. All with the same settings..

And.. the type of weather makes a difference too..

We oughta come up with a standard for comparison..

You are ABSOLUTELY correct. The only way that fps comparisons are accuratre is under a controlled situation test where ALL the variables except the core computer are the same.

Good luck though.

Look back at the fs2004 threads in the early days of that. I tried VERY hard to set up a system to do just that. So few people were willing to try what was necessary tro have any meaningful resulte... that I finally gave up.

You might have better luck.

best,
