Hi
Like quite a few others I have this recurring problem of GAIFR lagging
behind FS9 after 5-10 min.
I have been reading all NewsGroup topics on this kind of issue (that goes as
far back as 2004).
Although there were many recommendations and suggestions, I have never seen
any practical soIutions for resolution of the bug. Never the less, I applied
most of those recommendations.
- All sorts of network checking & tunning such as fixing 100MB FullDuplex
instead of Auto
- Installed updtPatch to 9.1
- Removed all 3thd parties DLLs from Modules
- Installed latest version of WideFS (6.51) and FSUIPC (3.53)
- In fact did a complete reinstall from sratch of FS9
- Reduced the target FPS to 30
Still same issue.
However, I found that when the lag shows up after 8-10min, I can get rid of
it by going into FS9 : Options/Setting/Display-Hardware and reducing
slightly the Target Frame Rate by just a few( ex. from 30 to 28 FPS). I can then
return again and bring it back to 30 and GAIFR will go fine for 10 more
minutes.
Obviously not the ideal approach in the course of action but it could help in
analysing the issue.
Meanwhile,I feel that I am running out of options…
Any suggestions ?
Config
- FS9.1
- WIN XP HomeEdition SP2
- ASUS AMD 2.1Ghz + 1G RAM
- ATI AIW X800 graphic card
- Two monitors (one is Giant screen HDTV)
- NIC NVIDIA nForce
Thanks for your upcoming help !
