My a bit outdated mainboard supports up to 2GB RAM Tongue

.

I had 1 Gb DDR300 RAM and I'm now having 2 Gb DDR400.

So the whole is:
AMD 4200+ X2
2GB RAM,
7600GTS Geforce w 256MB
lots of HDDs and a DVD drive.

But now I'm quite satisfied with my PC for the next time.

Cheers,
Fabian

Indeed, everything runs smoother now. But I can't give you numbers.

Also the new Memory is faster than the old one, so this has an effect, too.

As I already wrote I'm quite satisfied with my FSX settings and perfomance now.

Cheers my friend,
Fabian

All you need is some new EWE and there will be little lambs running around in no time.

its a farm joke.

"ram" is the male name for sheep and "ewe" is the female name. so you'll have lots of little lambs "babby sheep" running around.

How can I get shots like those? I think I have enough horsepower in the videocard department. So what am I doin' wrong? I have everything I can think of turned up to its max. I have the screen res set within the sim at the highest listed, and the control for the videocards set to the highest possible location for best Quality. I know it's hard to say what I should have without a screenie with which to judge, but I don't know how to embed a shot in a post.

Did just bumping up your RAM do all that? How about a shot with what you had before?

My system: AMD Phenom 9500 cpu, 2 x eVGA e-GeForce 8800GTS Superclocked vidcards (640Mb DDR3 each), Zalman "sunflower" 9700 fan, Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4 mobo, 4Gb G.Skill PC2-6400 DDR2 800Mhz RAM, 2 x Sony 20X DVD writers, Thermaltake Toughpower 850W modular p/s, 7 x 120mm fans, Windows XP Home and SP3, 2 x 250Gb Western Digital SATA-300 HDs (1 for apps, 1 for storage and precious files backup), CoolerMaster CM 690 case, NOD-32. Won't run FSX. Locks up a lot with FS9, too.

Hm, I think you've got a lot of higher system.
I'm running a Geforce 7600GTS w 256MB
AMD 4200+ X2
And 2 Gb of RAM now (had 1Gb).

So, I think you need to tweak your system a bit. There are lots of tweak on this forum, most written by Nick. He's the person to ask if you've got a problem with your setup.

Other than that a clean installation and defragmentation might be a start.

You could post a shot with your machine.....,

Cheers,
Fabian
