Frame rate hit in FSX DX10 no Stereo
In FSX the frame rate hit is really bad. Without stereo on I get a solid 30 fps but with stereo on it drops to 3-5 fps. I also noticed that with DX10 enabled within FSX no Stereo at all .The picture jogs a little thats it. And when I disabled DX 10 I still could not get stereo. So I had a copy of my CFG file and pasted that in to the folder and it worked again but low FPS. I also experienced like many others with FSX and Vista 64 Lock ups or crashes. So I set the Display to 16 bit and no crashes but still bad FPS in stereo. (With DX 10 enable you cannot set the display to 16 bit either.)
I have installed the new beta drivers but didnt help. I have service pack 1 and Acceleration installed.
All the games I run are great Test drive Unlimited is fantastic no loss of fps to be noticable.
Ms combat 3 works very well.
Real flight G4 ...perfect. Of course I still have the glasses upside down but Im getting use to it.
so until my samsung 2233RZ gets her i can't test the fps in FSX with without the THTG .
Any ideas why I lose so much with FSX only?.

It blows me away this is kind of MS flagship simulator and designed to work with DX10 in mind but oh wait it dosent run with VISTA 64 .I hope windows 7 will address all the problems Microsft created for us who pay good money for their software and cant use it.

I reinstalled all the drivers from the CD version and FSX works much better, I lose about 3-5 FPS now which is OK.
Happy simmer again. Except Nvidia, make a switch for the many who use DLP projectors on the driver like Edim has so we dont have to wear the glasses upside down PLease.
