I do not see:

[JOBSCHEDULER]
AffinityMask=



System is as follows:

WinXP Media Center 2005 Service Pack 3 (fully updated from clean install of OS)
Pentium D 930 dual core 3.0Ghz
300GB SATA HDD
2GB RAM DDR2 533mhz
Nvidia Geforce 7300GT 512mb RAM (175.16 drivers)
Sound Blaster Audigy SE (most current drivers)
DVD-RW
DVD-ROM

I did a complete clean install of FSX yesterday following this sites guidelines. Including both service packs 1 & 2. I'm not running Acceleration. The game runs fine at 1440x900@32bit averages 20 fps with the in game sliders ranging from 'default to high or dense settings'. Since I'm running a Dual core computer is there a reason the 'AffinityMask=' not showing in the FSX.cfg file? The game appears to be using both cores according to the Task manager.

You have to add it manually to the config file. Also some other tweaks, see Phil Taylor's blog for a lot of good tips.

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
