Hi everyone,
I posted here a few weeks ago about a weird issue I was having with my system. When I reinstalled XP (like I had routinely done before) my FPS in Flight Simulator 2004 were halved. I downloaded the right drivers and installed them properly. I even reinstalled multiple times to make sure I wasn't doing anything dumb. Because of this I am sure that I have a hardware issue, and my hunch leads me to my graphics card. My FPS are really slammed when I pan around to heavy scenery. FS 2004 is the only test of heavy graphics I have so that is the only question mark I have. Am I missing some easy setting or do I have a problem with my 3 year old X800XL? If it makes a difference, a node fell off of it last year but I noticed no consequences in performance. Please help! I just replaced my PSU because I thought that a lack of power might have been the issue.
