After getting the worse trojan I had ever seen it was time for a complete reformat on both drives......my that was fun.

Just getting in FSX again now.......lost all my fsx.cfg with all the tweaks of a couple of years, so time to get it all going again now lol.

Got a ton of reading to do to get it all back the way I had it.

Thanks..........just venting.

I just went through a full reinstall last week. The upside is that my FSX performance has never been better. I'm having too much fun flying around at 30fps with nearly everything maxed out now. Fingers crossed you get a similar result! :icon_lol:

Yep I have to admit, the sim is looking awesome now, found an old cfg file copied over the settigns, flying smooth as silk at set fps of 30, now to get all the scenery back in when I find them all, my office floor is covered in dvd's at the moment. Remembered my settings in Nhancer..........not a blip anywhere.

Sorry, your OFFICE floor? Now that's my kind of job....

Yup guess I'm lucky I work from home full time so my second bedroom is my home office.

I have to admit FSX is looking much better than it did before my crash, getting a nice steady 28-30 fps even over a loaded airport. Still tweaking the cfg file though. Most of the settings are all the way over to the right so I'm getting there.
