Have you tried removing any NVIDIA Control Panel profiles for Aces High then adding a profile for Aces High? Also make sure you let Aces High (application) decide the video settings of the Control Panel.

If that doesn't do it, a driver removal and reinstall should do it.

Right click anywhere on your desktop and you should see Nvidia control panel as one of the options.

By the way, my system won't let me remove the AH profile in the Nvidia control panel.

Yes and here is the fix!!!! That's right finally got my computer to run with NO STUTTERS!!! It seems for whatever reason all of us who are having stutters have either Intel or AMD multi-cores, with graphic cards that give us great frame rates till the "hiccups" occur. What I did even after freeing up all system resources,
( I have 4 gigs of ram ), put more of the work load on my video card. By bumping up my Maximum pre-rendered frames to 4, I am able to use 75%-85% of my video's ram, versus of a setting of 3 Maximum pre-rendered frames and using only 50% of my video ram. Not sure what is in the coad that affects us multi-core users but the flow of data from the CPU to the GPU seems to be the key. I have now flown with everything on gettin 73-75 fps and NO lock-ups or stutters for over 3 hours now. Keep in mind with however much ram you have on your video card you may need to tweak the numer of frames that suits your sytem best. But with 512 MB on my video card this setting seems to work the best for me. Wish everyone luck, and hopes this works for you.
