All you guys sound real experts so how can I upgrade my system to run FlightSim 2000 at a decent frames rate.
At the moment I get about 2.5 to 8 frames per second at half screen and with zero scenery, so it is hopeless for VFR flying. In fact it is hopeless full stop!!!
Here's the set up:
ATX tower case
(ATX) TX97 motherboard with 512K cache
AMD K6 200MHz processor
32MB SDRAM upgraded to 96MB
4.3GB Ultra DMA 33 Hard disk drive
3DI Expert@Play PCI 4MB
I'd like to do it on the cheap, so any suggestions would be very welcome and I will pay you back with a pint or three at Ash Bash 2000 (at Stansted on May 20) or the London PPRuNe gathering on Wednesday (Jan 12) at the Old Bank of England pub, corner of Fleet Street and Chancery Lane (see aircrew notices for details of both events)
cheers SS
