Long delays

[yubi]

I've started to experience long delays [5 to 10 seconds] when changing views, changing aircraft or selecting airports, weather themes, etc. Can anyone suggest how I can get my system to respond more quickly as it once did? Recycle bin is always empty and defragging is regularly done. Help please...Rudy...

Hi Rudy,

What are the specs of your hardware, in particular the Operating System, processor speed, graphics card type and model and quantity of system RAM ?

Rudy,
Did you have Virus protection software recently installed and always running? That would do it. Yeah, it takes a second more, but there's nothing like having 24/7 protection. Worth the 'slight delay', IMHO. You could disable it for FS9 flying. Just don't forget to enable it before you venture onto the WWW. Now a days, you NEED it.
