Hi,

Fistly i would try out what unreasonable said, if it works, your sorted :wink:

then like mentioned run a stress-test on your card' can do no harm &might show a fault.


if it doesn't work, here are some tips i've picked up throughout the years, not being a pc savy & trudging through everything, picking up all the good advice given by fellow simmers here & there:

Iobit system care, run before you sit down to fly, in 2 min it does a lot of cleaning & crap removal & defrags your drive.

Gamebooster, basically shuts everything OFF apart from the basic necessities, hence your pc can concentrate on il2 without crap running behind.

(Iobit security 360-small & fast & free- i have it - not relevant to il2 but i reccomend.)

So, all the above are free, will improve your pc performance & are very simple & fast to use....1 click.

So run all the above & test.

Then, when you have more time...ie a weekened go through the placing il2 to a separate core, this is a very simple yet bloody great guide i used - it looks complex - yet it aint so don't be afraid to use it please, it will benefit your gaming 100%.

Next step is if you post/pm your email i will send you my confi file, & you can replace yours with mine which is prepared for online play, ie performace yet great graphics. My pc is dual core, 4 yrs old & currently a xfx8800gts g/card, simply great.

if you need any further help installing or doing the dual core thingy I offer to talk you through this but it would have to be next weekened, due to family commitments.

& thanks to modders for great work & all those who have helped me understand il2 better!
