OK here's what I did: I have two internal drives. A pair of WD 80Gb IDE drives. Windows is on drive 0 and the page file is on drive 1. I had already been at 4Gb of page file size but I added a small 1Gb page file to the partition where windows is.
It hasn't helped. I still get great frame rates until about a minute into the simulation. I followed Skull's tutorial and played with a lot of settings but it hasn't helped at all. Once the frame rates drop into the unplayable range it will stay that way no matter whether I restart the sim or even restarting Il-2. If I restart the computer then I can get the high frame rates again but only for that one minute.
I suspect there is a driver conflict or corruption issue because restarting windows helps if only briefly. I have tried every version I have and the problem remains. Is there a way to flush the memory of the video card that could help? Is simply buying a new card the only answer left?
