Anyone have much experience with this, still use it, etc?
I tried last night to get my system going with AH, just offline flights to shake the rust off after several years away, but it kept locking up. I am going to check my video card drivers here in a bit, see if that was part of the problem, but I remember several years ago several players mentioning FSAutoStart and how it helps your machine run smoother by shutting down unneeded processes while you are in game.
I never got around to installing and trying it myself, real life stuff took me away from the game before I was able to give it a shot. Now I want to try and get back into the game and use my current 7 year old system until I can get a new built just for AH use.
Thanks!!!!!!

I use game booster myself.

I have been using it for years until lately, when it refused to work. And yes, the FS-autostart, not the Alacrity-PC and yes again, on XP. I don't know what went wrong with it. One day it works, thereafter not any more. Fortunately there's actually only a couple of processes I want to shut down so I now use the Task Manager for that, leaving 25 running including AcesHigh. Check Blackviper's site (http://www.blackviper.com/) for information about unnecessary processes and how to get rid of them. For temporarily shutting down several processes with one double click, you can create a batch file using "net stop <process>" command for each.
