	Mark, That's very helpful - many thanks. Funny, I have been flying her around a bit with those switches in the VERTICAL position and have not lost the avionics power. What do you figure . . will do it your way though from now on and report back any findings. Also, your advice elsewhere on how to manage the AP sorted me out. expat

O/C CPU generates more heat than at the normal clock speed so IF that is the problem, it could be worth reducing the CPU clock seep just a bit. OR get a better cooling system like the Corsair H series. I am seriously considering the Hydro Series� H80 High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler as a way to OC CPU without the worry of it getting too hot. Whether I get a new i7 2600K CPU and motherboard first remains to be seen. Mark You will not regret it. I have been running a liquid cooled Quad Core processor for 2 years and never had a CSD, FPS hickup. The other night I did a little adjusting of the "Set Affinity" controls. I seen somewhere how to adjust the settings. It seems crazy but if you start FSX and the open the task manager to reveal the Affinity controls and delselect all 4 processors then click on only one then closing it assigns one processor, then you re-open it and reassign all the CPU's. For some reason my frame rates go off the charts resulting in smooth running FSX. Now, I will tell you that I dropped my FPS to 24 frames as the real human eye can not detect anything above 22 FPS. OPPS! I just drifted of subject.

It was my fault you went "off topic" because I was the one who mentioned the Hydro Series� H80. I had considered changing the Affinity settings, but never actually done it. There is a lot that can be done to help get FSX to perform better, but I just haven't done them all. I get pretty good results with my current system as long as the sliders are not all set to maximum because I know my system isn't one of those whiz-bang-super-duper ones. Mark

It could be worth giving that a try. I vaguely remember having the same problem when I first got the CS C-130 X-perience and that might have been how I overcame it. cool cool! problem fixed also here! thanks a lot Mark
