I was wondering if anyone has compiled a list a what services that are un-necessary that can be stopped when flying online with FS9 for better perfomance and FPS. I know FSAuotostart has this ability and I was hoping to find a list rather than playing around on a trial and error basis.

 

Thanks in advance

What operating system are you running?

 

Anyway, it might actually be easier to come up with a list of "must have" services running, versus all the crazy ones individuals may have installed on their machines.

 

I turn off most everything except the essential services for the OS.

whatever you turn off just make sure its not network/connection related or OS related
