Thank you so much!!! If anyone else has frame rate issues on FP10/11, I highly recommend trying this out!

In dxdiag, I noticed directx hardware acceleration was enabled by default. So, I downloaded the DirectX Control Panel 9.0c, and unchecked "Use Hardware Acceleration" on the Direct3D and DirectDraw tabs. I have so many frames now, I have no idea what to do with them all
