Stuttering aircraft / even AI aircraft

Question

This problem seems to be ESP/FSX related.  When viewing aircraft from a tower or camera view they stutter noticeably.  Tried turning everything down while leaving essentials on.  To me it seems ESP flushes and relaods a massive amount of data all at once, causing a stutter.  Funny thing is when your watching aircraft there isn't much changing other than airplanes moving around.

System specs:
intel extreme quad core 2.6GHz
3GB ram
2 nvidia 8800 ultra 768MB SLI'd

Anyone else see these stutters?  Someone with more insight than I might be able to correlate why.  Thanks for taking a look.

For starters :-

#1: Make sure you have defragged your ESP  drive, after installing ESP.
  The install makes a fragmented mess of your ESP install  !!!

#2: Make sure your ESP's drive's MFT table is not approaching 100% full.  ( LOTS  of ESP files !!)
  If near 100%,  resize  to max 75%  usage

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

Answer 3

Bluefoxak,
Geoff has some good suggestions above - with such solid video cards I can't help but suggest you try the latest (even Beta) video drivers if case the defrag doesn't change the symptoms.  Also, I would use the divide-and-conquer trouble-shooting technique and start with very low or minimal display settings in ESP and work up from there to see when the stuttering begins.

Thanks.
Todd.
