    hi guys i recently got my alienware m17x r3 two days ago it has been fine and running many games without a problem but last night and today when i have been playing microsoft flight simulator x the fps has went to a snails pace but when i first got it on day one it was running smoothly on ultra high but now it has just give up. could this be a driver issue or a problem with the laptop i am using a Sandybridge i7 2.2 ghz with a amd 6990m
