    hi and welcome to the forum.

    you need to supply us with a bit more information if we are to try to help you

    1) what version of the game?
    2) online or offline ?
    3) dxdiag- see here how to do this

    http://www.airwarfare.com/tech/system.htm#001


    right off Id say you dont have enough ram and your graphics card is at the low end of what gives acceptable performance in the later versions of the game.

    The most common cause for stuttters is low ram and most play this game with 1 gb of ram

    To get decent fps then I would recommend around a 6600/6800 nvidea or 850 ati card - you can play on lower cards but you will need to turn down resolution - try 800*600* 32 and turn down aa and af to minimum and in the game go to hardware-video options and select basic.

    If it is online then use pingplotter to trace your connection and find bottlenecks and report these to your ISP.

    hope this helps

    Your main problem is lack of RAM, plus a low-end graphics card with, I think, out-of-date drivers.

    Fixes are....1. Put some more RAM in. The optimum is 1024Mb.

    2. Check for the best drivers for your graphics card. I don't fly nVidia so I can't advise you on the choice. A better card would be your best move - something like a 9800 Radeon would be a big a improvement.

    3. Go into the dxdiag tool and click the Sound tab. Lower the setting from Full down to Standard using the slider.
    Go into the IL2-Setup application and disable Audio enhancements & hardware acceleration.

    Test.

    I see the RAM as the major problem. Lack of it means that the game is having to make demands on virtual memory which involves accessing Windows (I.e. the Hard drive) and this is slower than RAM. This causes a stuttering effect. More RAM will prevent this.

    512MB of RAM is fine for Windows XP, but when you run another program, it will be tapping your virtual memory. Virtual memory (page file in WinXP) is located on the hard drive and the access and transfer rates are far slower than with RAM. 1GB of RAM is the absolute minimum these days. I thought 2GB was overkill, but in monitoring my computer, it will use nearly 1.5GB, so 2GB leaves a little head room.

    Yep, do yourself a favour and get at least 1024 MB of RAM. This will not only increase game performance, the whole OS will run better. Switched to 2 GB a few weeks before because many games use already more than 1 GB of RAM.
