Guys Im in a bit of poo. Up until recently my MSFlightsim graphics was fine. Frame rate etc was good and graphics all smooth. I operate in full screen mode.
Recently for no apparent reason the graphics are now jerky. It "hesitates" on a regular cycle about every 1 second. Frame rate goes from 30-50 per sec down to about 5-7 during the "hesitation".
The problem is that everything was fine before so I suspect a hardware problem. I drag my laptop around a bit. Ive tried every trick re graphic/quality tradeoff but have had no success.
Im not all that educated when it comes to graphics. Is it possible the Pentium is overheating? Is it the video card has become faulty? Is this "graphics acceleration" thing a hardware item?
Any advice greatfuly received and thanks a heap in anticipation.
