NickN our resident guru would tell you to download nHancer, a free utility that stops nVidia reverting to its pre-programmed settings for FSX.

Set it up according to the stickies at the top of the forum, and replicate it in the nVidia control panel.  It is the one about setting up FSX and SP2.

I really urge you to do this, it is quite necessary for a smooth running game.

To funny Nick, I did like the doctor bit.

It is a good thing that you do not charge what doctors do or a lot of us would have a lot less money or FSX would not be running on our systems as good as it is.

Yes, that is clean!

And those perscriptions were not about performance although you may find they will help in that area, they are more about visual quality and clairity
