FSX setup/configuration guide

While in the States I have taken the plunge and bought FSX Gold edition. I thought there was a sticky or other entry here for a ultimate/definitive FSX set up and config guide - particularly how to optimise fps and other performance perameters but can't seem to find it.
 
Hi,
There was but we had a server meltdown/Hacker attack and everythingwas lost.
Hopefully it will be replaced.

That is because the forum was hacked and all the info was lost...

Yea it really bites..but the info is starting to appear slowly again....



To start... Defragg your HDD first..

Install FSx...register it and load a flight and fly for a minute to allow textures to fully load.... Then quit and Defragg again..


Then install Acceleration and do the same as above..register, fly, quit and defragg....


Then see where you.re at and get back for set up help....


Welcome to the dark side....LOL
 
Thanks guys. Maybe - just maybe - some SOH member copied and pasted some of the contents and backed it up somewhere . . .
 
Just a follow up to say I installed FSX yesterday without a hitch and and am enjoying smooth 30 fps flights. Many thanks to Harleyman for his helpful advice and suggested settings. Much more more tweaking, adding-on to do . . :jump:
 
Whats Up...Glad to hear all is good for you .....Just call out if you need more tips or whatever....:wavey:
