Also don't be shy of trying out the 16Km mod with GWX didn't drop my frame rates.
Thats a very handy utility called FSAutostart. It lists all actively running programs and background processes and offers the option to disable quite a few of them to free up valuable memory and processor power.

This link provides a download link and a tutorial on how to use the program

You're system should be able to handle SHIII+GWX but to get the best results, if you can afford it that is :P, up the system memory to 1GB Minimum. You may also want to check out the TweakGuides Tweaking Companion found below.

I cannot sing the praises of this site and the author's guides enough. It takes quite a bit of time to get through, but it will explain system usage and the way 3D applications run, and also give you a better understanding for all the graphics options and what they do, and how to effectivly tweak your hardware and OS to get the best performance.

Having said that, Welcome to Subsim Shipmatey! Best of luck for your first GWX patrol, sink them all!
