Nice planes - but so slow

Postby Sparkymarky » Wed Aug 20, 2003 3:32 pm

Hi all

I am totally lost - I have just re-loaded FS2002 having bought it months ago and then gone of it!  I am getting well into it now - except I cant do the tests for the licences.

But my question is this - when I load some of the great planes on here (like Virgin and BA) the whole program seems to go unbelievably slowly!  Help!

Thanks

:)

by the way - love the downloads!
;D

Try changing some of the settings to a lower level, that should, in theory, help.

SparkyMarky what drivers are you using with your video card? With the GF2 you'll find the 30.xx perform far better than the newer 4x.xx series.
