Thank you very much Nick.

Yes, Nick is an expert when it comes to PC's...

I want to make it quite clear that if anyone wishes to run through that thread they make SURE they read the entire thread and UNDERSTAND the risks involved.

BACK UP BEFORE DOING ANYTHING

My 'expertise' is based on experience and although I may have a grasp on how things work, I learn new things just like everyone else. I do not know every single issue and fix to every combination of hardware, drivers and software on the market so although what I post may significantly improve a users expereince, it may also cause unforseen issues as that thread clearly displays.

It was not my goal to become the forum tech support when I posted that information. It is there for anyone to try but is not there for me to start a complete diagnostic of all hardware and software issues that may surface because of it.

I will help as I can but I can not be expected to fix everyones system. There is also NO SUBSTITUE for GOOD and PROPERLY specified hardware.

As long as anyone who may try the items in that thread accepts the risks and also PROPERLY backs up to ensure your system is safe, you may find value in all, or even just part of the information outlined.





EDIT: And if you are not sure or do not understand what you are doing... seek professional 1 on 1 assistance  

It is an important point Nick is making up above there, and I want to reinforce it.


Nick is not your personal online tech support person!


He could end up spending his entire life helping individuals on SimV with their machines.

My grandson is a member on this board too and I do not get as much time with him as I would like so he gets the benefits of time I spend posting here along with everyone else.

I'm gonna get it now.. I better check my email  

Nick. I'm sorry if i have startet something up here. It was not ment to give you hard work, but i've read so many questions and topics about fps and memory problems in fs9 and fsx. Your input could help a lot of simmers. Its good and clever, made by a person who knows, and i've seen this topics linked at avsim too.
If i may, i will point out two issues that are not so dangerous:
System - Advanced Tab.
Services Shutdown.
These two will gain a lot to many pc's, but i am going to repeat your warning:
BACK UP ANYTHING YOU CHANGE!!!!!
Sorry Nick.

Backing up is one of the basic rules in editing, and i tell you, most people learn it the hard way. I've had complete models gone bye bye because i forgot to do my monthly backup.

Yes,
and pay attention to this too!  ;)

lol ok Nick I know what you mean,  You have to understand I was really only joking with the 'piss off' thing, just trying to be light hearted.  Its great having a British sense of humour!
