The wind will rock the aircraft. If your display card can't keep up with
this minimal activity, get a new display card. Really, if you actually have
only 2 or 4 MB of video RAM I am surprised you can run at all. There is
nothing in the FDMs that is giving you problems, so just put that out of
your mind. Your troubles are caused by having a machine that is apparently
not up to the task. I found this out myself about a year ago. I could not
run FlightGear for many months until I upgraded my machine.
