Flight Simulator X Latency & Framing

[will_crump]

I am using a Dell Inspiron 570. Here are the specifications:

AMD Athlon 64 x2 3.0 GHz
8 GB RAM
nVidia GTX 660ti 3 GB GDDR5
120 GB SSD
2.0. TB HDD
650-watt PSU

I am running Windows 10's latest build. My video card drivers are up to date. I have two monitors connected to my computer, but am not using surround mode.

I can no longer run FSX properly. For the past several months I have had difficulty with "jerky" video and framing. When I start to taxi the aircraft or take off, the plane seems to "slide back" toward me and then "slide forward" away from me. Framing makes the game unplayable. Even the joystick has latency and doesn't respond like it used to. I even have this problem running the game in Windows 7.

I can watch 1080p video on YouTube no problem.

I am at a loss for why my computer can no longer run FSX properly when it ran perfectly about 6 months ago. No compatibility modes work either. Please help.

I use a batch file that kills the explorer, starts the game, and then restarts the explorer once the game is closed out.
