Sorry Guys, but this one has me stumped!!!
Having just purchased installed the T1/A on my home rig - a water-cooled i7, on an Asus Pro MOBO, with SSDs, 16Gb-Ram, TH2G & 3x27" main screens - running ONLY P3d-v2-3, my frame rates have plummeted to 0.6 .....yes, zero-point-six.    
Normally I get 70-80 using a default Baron-58 in non-extreme scenery areas and 30-35 in ORBX/UK2000 areas.
"Woss-goin-on?" (As they say in my good-ol' East End!!)

Seriously....anyone else with this problem??
What have I touched/done wrong??
Reinstalled three times (including with/without 'Compatibility-mode')
Any guidance would be much appreciated.   
(I'm desperate to fly this beautiful model, but my zoom/pan is also hit by this problem, making even start-up 'difficult'!).
HELP?!?!?!?
Barry.

Hi Barry,
Right click on the p3d.exe file and make sure that compatibility mode isn't enabled. That should fix the 0.6fps issue.

Wow!!!!!
Thank you SOOOOO much, Rich!!
That cured it.....now running mid 30's FPS.
I had never heard of that solution before.   In fact I have always made it a priority to run ALL of my progs in W7-compat mode.
What a super model.   First EGGD circuit was great. Sadly the first landing wasn't, but then it does go a wee bit faster....and higher...than my trusty Baron.
Now I've just got to learn to fly the darned thing!!
Thanks again, buddy - and I hope that this solution might help others too.
Cheers
B
