A few questions.

Postby Cyborg » Wed Jul 04, 2007 4:33 pm

Welcome all sim maniacs  :)

I"m writing to You, because I have some doubts about quality of FSX at my PC.
But first things first. ;)

I bought my PC basicly to be able to play at FSX, so it looks like this:

ABIT IN9 32X-MAX WiFi, nForce-680i SLI, Socket-775,ATX,2xGbLAN,DDR2,2xPCI-Ex16
Corsair Dominator TWIN2X8500C5D 2048MB, DDR2,2x1GB(KIT),DHX,E.P.P, CL5-5-5-15-2T
Gainward GeForce 8800 GTS
Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz Socket
Samsung 320 GB SATA2

I think that"s all main parts. PC works just fine, so yesterday I bought FSX deluxe version, and I installed it today.
If I have to be honest with You I"m a little dissapoited, and that" why I have a few questions for You experts.

I checked my CPU while running FSX.I noticed that one core was running at 100%, while the second core at 0%, so total use of CPU was 50%.
I dont know, did I made sometning wrong? I thought that FSX was made especially for 2 core proccessors. If not even, i thought that game or the system ( Windows XP) recognize 2 core proccessor and use both cores properly.

Waiting for Your reply.
Regards.

FSX loosely supported both cores but in a very limited way.  With the advent of FSX SP1 this all changed.  Go to FS Insiders and you`ll find the FSX SP1 patch to download (free).  That should sort it out for you.
