New DINO-T45C

I love the bird but it's hard on my frame rates; it's kind of strange I get good frame rates (30+) for a pass or two on the boat and then it will crawl to 5-10 FPS, usually after the trap. I used to have this problem with Dino's F-14 but haven't seen it lately. Anyone else anything similar?
 

Herbie:
You give very little other Info. Did you defrag your Hardrive lately? Computer optimized for FSX, Acceleration? Herb

Love this plane, primarily for the colimated HUD. I can move my eyepoint anywhere and the velocity vector still points where the plane is going...sooo cool. I so wish we had this for the sludge and Dino's f-14. I know it is very difficult and need to be built into the plane model.

No frame rate probs with this bird for me.

In case any reader is not aware, Dino will release an update soon.

It's not just the new T-45C; it's happening on all my birds (with/without tail hooks) but only around the boat. I have been running with this system for over a year with good performance, no problems at all. It's strange, it only happens around the boat and I'm fine for two passes and then my third pass turns into a slide show (5-12 FPS). As soon as I "turn off" the carriers I jump right back to 40+ FPS.

I'm running a dual core 2.8 GHZ with 4 gig of RAM with a decent NVIDA card (Dell M4400). Not an ideal rig (my other system died awhile back) but with very conservative settings I've had consistent performance.

Of course the only thing I have time for is a few day, night, and foul weather passes to keep my skills up around the boat.

This system struggles with the VRS Super Bug, but that's expected.

I thought maybe my HD was on the fritz until I got my FPS back after turning the boat off (I do regular defrags); I only use this system for FSX, it hardly ever touches the Internet unless I'm downloading something for FSX.

I guess it's time for a new system; I really want to wait until Fall before buying, I'm just to busy this summer.

I was hoping that someone out there would offer a "oh try this"; I figured someone might have/had similar symptoms.
