  1. I have reinstalled FSX once again now and applied jethrom's fixes. The missing sound device does not seem to be fixed, despite the sound working absolutely fine and me installing the Conexant driver manually (according to the device manager, my audio devices already ran the latest drivers before). More importantly, FSX now runs stable-ish (FPS occasionally drops to 20-25 without noticable stutter) when locking FPS to 30 FPS, and stable when locking FPS to 24! However, with third party aircraft of various quality (freeware Ercoupe, payware Bf 108, payware J-3 test pending) the stutters and noticable FPS drops reappear.

Best, X8X8X ps: I realised my "procspeed" line was not consistent between the various fsx.cfg I uploaded. You are right, il88pp, something is - very - wrong here.
  2. Dear il88pp, Thank you! It says "Intel® Core™ i7-4700MQ CPU @ 2,4GHz 2.40 GHz". My audio is working fine, but I (re-) installed the Conexant Audio Software. I unchecked the "Hide Extensions for Known File Types" box but appear to have posted the "true" .cfg before. Dear jethrom, Thank you! You are onto something here, I recall having bought the Steam edition of FSX, having heard that it ran better. It did not and I refunded it. While I cannot recall, it is entirely possible that I had both the boxed and the Steam edition of FSX installed simultaneously. I did implement the changes you highlighted on the second test run but posted the fsx.cfg that was written by default. They did indeed improve performance! As of now, I will try to reinstall fsx once more and see if my issues will be fixed. I shall report back as soon as possible! Best, X8X8X
  3. Thank you all very much! Dear llivaudais, I roughly followed "the Bible" when reinstalling FSX and Windows. However, the issues do not appear to be fixed. Dear jorgen, I first tried to change only the in-game settings, then the fsx.cfg manually. The latter gave better results; FPS drops are still present, however. Dear il88pp, This is my new FSX.cfg, having renamed the "old" one (when first starting FSX to fsx_old.cfg): [GRAPHICS] SHADER_CACHE_PRIMED_10=1693500672 SHADER_CACHE_PRIMED=1693500672

Dear AMjethrom, I implemented the your highlighted changes to the fsx.cfg above, if they were not already defaulted according to your suggestions. The game looks and runs better now. However, FPS still drop from 30 to 20 every few seconds.
  4. Dear il88p, jethrom and jorgen, Thank you very much for your help!! I will test all your solutions as soon as possible. Unfortunately my hardware "situation" has gone from bad to worse overnight, as my laptop now refuses to start... As I write these lines, Windows is being reinstalled. I shall report back as soon as the laptop itself is running again. Best, X8X8X
  5. Thank you very much! I run the boxed edition of FSX Gold, so it should be the Acceleration standard (which does include SP2, I believe). I have to go to bed now (being European), so no need to hurry! I'll try them as soon as I can tomorrow and report back. Best, Brett
  6. Hello jethrom, Thank you! I did exclude the FSX folder and its contents from Avira's searches. I disabled bilinear filtering for testing purposes, with it enabled the textures look much better (which doesn't quite explain to me why they look that horrible in the first place). I'll reinstall my graphics driver tomorrow and report back (although I do not expect it to solve my performance issue). Capping the FPS to 30 on minimum settings works fine, the game runs very smoothly. But as soon as I rise them to a somewhat acceptable level (I shall try to increase them incrementally tomorrow and report back!) the FPS drops below 30 and the stutter becomes a true nuisance. The fsx.cfg should be as stock as they come, please find it below: [GRAPHICS] SHADER_CACHE_PRIMED_10=1693500672 SHADER_CACHE_PRIMED=1693500672 D3D10=0 TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD=64 NUM_LIGHTS=8 AIRCRAFT_SHADOWS=0 AIRCRAFT_REFLECTIONS=1 COCKPIT_HIGH_LOD=0 LANDING_LIGHTS=0 AC_SELF_SHADOW=0 EFFECTS_QUALITY=0 GROUND_SHADOWS=0 TEXTURE_QUALITY=3 IMAGE_QUALITY=0 See_Self=1 Text_Scroll=1 [sOUND] AmbientUIMusicVolume=-6.000000 PrimaryDevice={DEF00000-9C6D-47ED-AAF1-4DDA8F2B5C03} VoiceDevice={DEF00002-9C6D-47ED-AAF1-4DDA8F2B5C03} SOUND=1 SOUND_QUALITY=2 SOUND_LOD=0 UISound=1 AmbientUI=0 [Display] ChangeTime=4.000000 TransitionTime=4.000000 ActiveWindowTitleTextColor=255,255,255 ActiveWindowTitleBackGroundColor=0,28,140,64 NonActiveWindowTitleTextColor=255,255,255 NonActiveWindowTitleBackGroundColor=24,33,87,64 InfoUpperRightTextColor=255,0,0 InfoUpperRightBackGroundColor=0,0,0,0 InfoLowerLeftTextColor=255,255,255 InfoLowerLeftBackGroundColor=255,0,0,128 InfoLowerRightTextColor=255,255,255 InfoLowerRightBackGroundColor=255,0,0,128 InfoBrakesEnable=True InfoParkingBrakesEnable=True InfoPauseEnable=True InfoSlewEnable=True InfoStallEnable=True InfoOverspeedEnable=True BLOOM_EFFECTS=0 SKINNED_ANIMATIONS=0 TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT=10 UPPER_FRAMERATE_LIMIT=0 WideViewAspect=False [Main] User Objects=Airplane, Helicopter SimObjectPaths.0=SimObjects\Airplanes SimObjectPaths.1=SimObjects\Rotorcraft SimObjectPaths.2=SimObjects\GroundVehicles SimObjectPaths.3=SimObjects\Boats SimObjectPaths.4=SimObjects\Animals SimObjectPaths.5=SimObjects\Misc ProcSpeed=5233 PerfBucket=7 Maximized=1 Location=444,133,1476,904,\\.\DISPLAY1 HideMenuNormal=0 HideMenuFullscreen=1 [PANELS] IMAGE_QUALITY=1 DEFAULT_VIEW=0 QUICKTIPS=0 PANEL_OPACITY=100 PANEL_MASKING=1 PANEL_STRETCHING=1 UNITS_OF_MEASURE=0 [Weather] WindshieldPrecipitationEffects=1 MinGustTime=10 MaxGustTime=500 MinGustRampSpeed=1 MaxGustRampSpeed=200 MinVarTime=5 MaxVarTime=50 MinVarRampSpeed=10 MaxVarRampSpeed=75 TurbulenceScale=1.000000 WeatherServerAddress=fs2k.zone.com WeatherServerPort=80 WeatherGraphDataInDialog=0 AdjustForMagVarInDialog=1 DynamicWeather=0 DownloadWindsAloft=0 DisableTurbulence=0 CLOUD_DRAW_DISTANCE=3 DETAILED_CLOUDS=0 CLOUD_COVERAGE_DENSITY=5 THERMAL_VISUALS=0 [DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M.0] Mode=1024x768x16 Filter=0 [AccelerationPack] ControlsFirstRun=0 HomePageFirstRun=0 [CONTROLS] Controls_Default=Standard Controls_Current=Standard JOYSTICKS=1 KBDAIL=64 KBDELEV=64 KBDRUD=64 [TextInfo.1] Latitude=1,1 Longitude=1,2 Altitude=1,3 Heading=1,4 AirSpeed=1,5 WindDirectionAndSpeed=1,6 [TextInfo.2] FrameRate=1,1 LockedFrameRate=1,2 GForce=1,3 FuelPercentage=1,4 [TextInfo.3] Latitude=1,1 Longitude=1,2 Altitude=1,3 Heading=1,4 AirSpeed=1,5 WindDirectionAndSpeed=1,6 FrameRate=2,1 LockedFrameRate=2,2 GForce=2,3 FuelPercentage=2,4 [slewTextInfo.1] Latitude=1,1 Longitude=1,2 Altitude=1,3 Heading=1,4 AirSpeed=1,5 [slewTextInfo.2] FrameRate=1,1 LockedFrameRate=1,2 [slewTextInfo.3] Latitude=1,1 Longitude=1,2 Altitude=1,3 Heading=1,4 AirSpeed=1,5 FrameRate=2,1 LockedFrameRate=2,2 [DynamicHeadMovement] LonAccelOnHeadLon=-0.020000 LonAccelOnHeadPitch=-0.010000 RollAccelOnHeadLat=0.010000 YawAccelOnHeadLat=-0.100000 RollAccelOnHeadRoll=0.100000 MaxHeadAngle=5.000000 MaxHeadOffset=0.300000 HeadMoveTimeConstant=1.000000 [VirtualCopilot] VirtualCopilotActive=1 [uSERINTERFACE] PageID=1 OpenATCOnCreate=0 SHOW_MISSION_CAPTIONS=0 PAUSE_ON_LOST_FOCUS=1 PROMPT_ON_EXIT=1 SITUATION=FLIGHTS\OTHER\FLTSIM Map_Orientation=2 [ATC] ShowATCText=1 COMM_MSG_NONE_COLOR=FFFFFFFF COMM_MSG_ATC_USER_COLOR=FFB6FFB6 COMM_MSG_USER_ATC_COLOR=FFFFD21B COMM_MSG_ATC_AI_COLOR=FF00FF00 COMM_MSG_AI_ATC_COLOR=FFFF7840 AutoOpenAirTrafficWindow=1 UsePilotVoice=1 PilotVoice=0 [PointOfInterestSystem] CycleSetting=0 [sCENERY] LENSFLARE=0 DAWN_DUSK_SMOOTHING=1 IMAGE_COMPLEXITY=0 [TrafficManager] AirlineDensity=0 GADensity=0 FreewayDensity=0 ShipsAndFerriesDensity=0 LeisureBoatsDensity=0 IFROnly=0 AIRPORT_SCENERY_DENSITY=0 [TERRAIN] LOD_RADIUS=2.500000 MESH_COMPLEXITY=0 MESH_RESOLUTION=17 TEXTURE_RESOLUTION=22 AUTOGEN_DENSITY=0 DETAIL_TEXTURE=0 WATER_EFFECTS=0 [AContain] ShowLabels=0 ShowUserLabel=0 ShowLabelManufacturer=1 ShowLabelModel=1 ShowLabelTailNumber=0 ShowLabelDistance=1 ShowLabelAltitude=1 ShowLabelAirline=0 ShowLabelAirlineAndFlightNumber=0 ShowLabelFlightPlan=0 ShowLabelContainerId=0 ShowLabelAirspeed=0 ShowLabelHeading=0 LabelDelay=1000 LabelColor=FFFF0000 [iNTERNATIONAL] ASLAT=2 ASLON=1 MEASURE=0 [REALISM] PFactor=0.000000 Torque=0.000000 GyroEffect=0.000000 CrashTolerance=0.000000 General=0.000000 UnlimitedFuel=True AllowEngineDamage=False TrueAirspeed=False AutoCoord=True RealMixture=False StressDamage=False GEffect=False ManualLights=False GyroDrift=False CrashWithDyn=False CrashDetection=False AutoTrim=False [sIM] SYSCLOCK=1 [sTARTUP] DEMO=0 SHOW_OPENING_SCREEN=1 STARTUP_DEMO= LoadWindow=1 [FACILITIES] COUNTRY= STATE= CITY= GTL_BUTTON=4096 [Misc] Com_Rate=7 [MULTIPLAYER] condAccoutPassword=0 Best, X8X8X
  7. Thank you! I did. It works fine on minimal settings but as soon as the settings are slightly raised FPS drop below 30, accompanied by heavy stutter. Tomorrow I'll see which settings I can slightly raise before the stutters dip below 30 FPS. Regardless, the game will still look horrible and the reason for the stutter is not - yet - found. Best, X8X8X
  8. I am not. Sure, I can set the settings low enough for the FPS to only drop to 60. But does this look like an enjoyable flight sim in the 21st century? To reiterate, my issue is not total FPS at lowest settings - it is great! My issue is the FPS dropping by roughly 2/3 every few seconds - no matter which settings! Even while the game is paused! Therefore, it cannot be any "usual" autogen or terrain loading issue, can it. This is why I am lost, and this is why I need the community's support. Best, X8X8X
  9. FSX suffers from FPS drops and stutters every few seconds on my - dated - laptop. My specs are: - Microsoft Flight Simulator X Gold (boxed, Steam version has similar issues) - Intel i7-4700MQ @ 2,4 GHz - NVidia GeForce GT740M - 16 GB RAM - 1 TB HDD - Windows 10 (64 Bit) Even on the absolutely lowest settings (and in pause!) the frame rate (of the default flight) sits around 180 only to drop to the 60s every few seconds. This issue is obviously compounded at medium or even low settings, making it utterly unplayable. I tried various fsx.cfg tweaks on the internet before, to no avail. Given that a - not inexpensive - 2013 laptop cannot run a 2006 game at any settings above the absolute minimum, and the issue (of the frame rate dropping by two thirds every few seconds) persists regardless of settings, something has to be wrong! Is there any fix for this issue? Best, X8X8X
