Hi Pete,
Cheers for that. I suspect you are correct as ever. I went thru the news group and found a few tips. After alot of tweakink and testing I traced it back to some sort of conflict between the PC thats running the CDU and the PFD. I found that by letting FS have control of the netdir, things worked a lot better. Also pulled the fs frame rate from 25 locked to 20 locked. This improved things by 12/13 seconds below FL100. :D
@ Murray,
Wow, thats a lot of info! Im using a belkin 5 way hub. My big problem is my PC rack is behind the Left seat with 3 machines in there and 2 more where the Radar dome would be. This cables are at least 2 meters. :cry:
I will have a look at XP lite as you suggested.
No doubt I will be looking to your skills for further help.
Many thanks agin guys.
James
