[Earlier this week I updated my driver to nvidia's latest beta 275.27 W7 64bit, but not seen any oddities in other games so far]

3. no sound until about 10 minutes into a mission, thereafter certain sounds intermittant or missing completely - again never had missing sound in an actual mission before, only in the known issue with track replays and sounds that have never been there as far as I know (e.g. train sounds) ;
Zappa,

I had the graphic " anomlies" . However, after I updated my Nvidia drivers (version released 4-18-11 ) the " anomlies " are gone.
Never had sound issues.
Intel i7 960 tray [ 3.2/8/4.8GT], 6GB -1600 Corsair, GTX 560Ti 2GB.

I get 99% usage on both GPUs in most of the scenes, cockpit view however seems broken and I get about 1/4FPS of external view and some flickering.

Sys used:
Intel Core i7 930 @ 4.2Ghz
Asus Rampage III Extreme
12GB Corsair Dominator GT 1600Mhz

Have you tried creating a new shortcut? I think steam can sometimes lose the path, happened to me last patch but I have game and steam installed on different drives, have you tried to launch direct from launcher.exe?
If so ignore me

(if you meant 174fps I will be very happy...)

I think he means he gets a quarter of the frames in cockpit view that he gets in outside view. For example if he gets 100fps in outside view he only gets a quarter of 100 which is 25fps in cockpit view.

S!

Also noted something odd that if bringing up the console with Shift + Tab my FPS actually increase from 10 to 35FPS. Closing it drops the FPS back to "normal". What causes this? I run full screen mode, specs below.
