Hello all,
Well, some of you may know that about 3 weeks ago, I started a topic regarding changes I could make to improve the sims performance. Well, I've been working on it since then, and here's what I've done. I went through Local Disk C extensively and filtered the things I don't really need. Then I went and deleted a few process that didn't need to be done, (I still don't know how to program it so that they don't start up again everytime I restart the computer). I defragmented my disk C, and still, I'm getting 12-14 frames at airports, with the display settings at medium Low. Now, this machine is more than capable of delivering an outstanding performance, I'm sure, so I know there is something else that needs to be done. Any ideas. Could it be that the machine is heating up to the extent that it's slowing the sim down? If so, I'll try to find some way around it. Thanks

msconfig. Feed that into /start/run.

You want the Startup part (tab). If you don't know what something is feed it into Google for fast answers.

That would be great if you uploaded the old version. I downloaded the new version when it was announced via e-mail, got rid of the old one and THEN realised that the new one was time-limited. Many regrets - it just proves that you gotta be watchful all the time. Shocked Shocked Shocked

Thanks for the help guys. Unfortunately, I have a problem that is not one you can repair. In the country where I currently reside, they've refused access to certain URL's that promote violence, sex, etc. etc. - Due to the fact that they don't know what your sending across younsendit, I'm denied access to the link. Do you know if it's possible for download anywhere else? Again, thanks for the tips Wink All are duely noted, and always acknowledged Very Happy

Hey Crosscheck, there is absolutely nothing wrong with RadarMan's solution (see below) if you have difficulty getting Greekman's file.
The only difference is that using the msconfig. method takes a few more clicks with the mouse in comparison.
