THIS SUX!!  I just got this computer less than a month ago, and this is just retarded.  Part of the reason why I got a new computer was because I was having all sorts of problems and now its happening again.

LOL, I never saw the movie Langoliers, but I read the book so I know what you're talking about.

"Langoliers" was creepy.  But Jakemaster's problem does look similar.  He should watch out for small flying mouths!

TV Movies = Sucky Cheesy

It would have been much better as a motion picture.

On the issue at hand move your display settings to medium low and see if it works better.

Okay, back on topic.  I can wait as long as I want, it won't help.  And it's not the settings, theyre pretty low as is.  I just have to restart the computer.

i don't have any paper work to back this up but it could be due to fack you only have 512MB of ram.  I only had 512 and had al sorts of problems.  also it could be the intergrated graphics.  I never had any luck with those.  

btw, is your machine an  emachines.  the specs you give sound like one of the models they have out right now.  

anyway, i would try more ram and see if that helps.  either way, more ram is better anyway.

Time to upgrade your video card...get a real card and you will not have any more problems..really.

See you are dedicating 64-128MBs of your 512MB of RAM to the video card...and everyone knows that On-board video just is not for gaming.

I am amazed you can even load fs9 with onboard!

Jake, I've read all the answers in this thread, and so far I don't see a solution. I frame rate lock at 20fps and have never had that problem. My comp started out with integrated graphics, I never had that problem. Although I know everyone posting in this thread is well intentioned, but Seek out Hagar here on SimV, he will help or direct you to your solution. Good luck, I can appreciate how annoying it must be for you....Clipper  :)
