OMG fps

[michaelb15]

I dont know what I did or how my computer is doing it, but I reciently reformatted my computer, and

1) I can now overclock my pentium D 2.8ghz to over 3ghz, and before I had hard times going above 2.85.

2)Nvidia Inspector will not start up for what ever the reason I dont know whats wrong with it.. im gonna post somthing asking about that in another forum..

3) I can now get 22fps (locked at 22fps) where before I had troubles maintaining 8fps.

Its pretty amazing apart from nvidia inspector.
I dont know what the reformat did, but now that I look back im really happy that I did it.

Im hoping that when I install the addons it will continue to produce these results because right now its just stock FSX deluxe + accleleration. (with my old tweaked FSX.cfg, from before the reformat)

It was actually a system crash that made me reformat, because the boot.ini file got messed up, and in my futile attempts to repair it, I royaly screwed up the XP installation, so I just reformatted completly..

I kept all the planes that I had downloaded, I have all the .zip files on my spare hard drive so I dont have to redownload them, I just gotta reinstall them. and the scenery.

but yea im really happy about everything that happened, just so happy that I had to post this  8-)

good deal.  sometimes a FORMAT helps clean up the computer and it gets rid of A LOT of crap that builds up over time.  Most times we never realize just how much crap we download/install just to get 1 program to run right.   Glad you are back up and running, even it is stock.
