sagamol 0 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 if i have a duo core and i read that it doesnt activate itself to use BOTH CORES to run FSX, how do i get this done? might as well use them both if i have them. thanks, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hodge 0 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Add the following command: to the FSX .cfg file [JOBSCHEDULER] AffinityMask=n "n" refers to the number of cores on your system that are scheduled. Refer to the table below: n= # of Cores 1 1 core 0001 3 2 cores 0011 7 3 cores 0111 15 4 cores 1111 Since you are utilizing an Dual-Core Processor on your system, This is the line to add [JOBSCHEDULER] AffinityMask=3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted January 27, 2008 Aerosoft Share Posted January 27, 2008 thank you so very much Hodge. i will do that and let you know the outcome.... Tom If you install SP1 or SP2 you don't need to do anything, in fact adding these tweaks could hurt performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sagamol 0 Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 I un-installed FSX from the CD, then installed it again. i also took out the tweak as you mentioned. I have not added back any add-on sceneries, so my FSX is "clean". i installed SP1. my load time is rediculously slow. so i'm wondering about my NVIDIA settings..i havnt changed them, but here they are...even with the Auto-Gen the load stops at about 37 % and just sits there, until it slowly creeps on to 100 %..takes forever and thats not how it used to be... does SP1 take care of the dual core issue?? thanks so much for all you do for us here and at AEROSOFT!!!

Snave 466 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Nothing to do with the number of cores. DEFRAG after installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
