    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Bad sound in FSX:SE

I need some help! I recently had my old SSD drives replaced since they were showing lots of wear and 8 years old, so I have to reinstall everything. I have run FSX:SE (Windows 10) for a few years now with little problem, but now that I have reinstalled it the sound is very distorted and has lots of static. It sounds like the speakers are overdriven (but they aren't). I only have this problem with FSX. I have uninstalled and reinstalled more than once, and tried installing in a different partition. I have done the Steam file verification. Does anyone have a solution? I would appreciate it a lot!

I had a similar experience in FS 9, which was then caused by the 'frame rate' slider in the unlimited position. With less (25 fps) sound was normal again.

Hope it helps ...

Thanks a million for the suggestion, Rob. It didn't eliminate the problem completely, but it did cut the distortion to a tolerable level. I would have never thought of that! I'll keep messing with the sliders and see what happens. Thanks again.
