Just found that out. Heads up.
Ah. Two Things that might help.

1) You might need to add your graphics card to Freelancer.

Step 1: Go to ...\Microsoft Games\Freelancer\EXE and find the file flconfigdatabase.txt
Step 2: Open it.
Step 3: Find the manufacturer of your graphics card.
Step 4: Look for the LAST graphics card in the list (of graphics cards made by your manufacturer)
Step 5: Directly underneath, write your graphics card details.

2) I have recently found Overwolf is a frame buffer, and it recognises Freelancer. I don't know if it will work for Discovery though. Get it here: http://www.overwolf.com/
Not in freelancer.

Usually games using modified UT engines, such as Borderlands.
I've had a bad framerate problem the last while, I feel like I've been watching it shrink and shrink. I've disabled the v-sync on my card (I use ATI Radeon X1200). I actually added it to the list but seems to make no difference, neither does disabling v-sync. I've found that depending on the monitor I can 'force' it to work at 75 hz and that does give a better framerate, starts at 75 but then drops to maybe 40 after launch. But then the entire game starts to tweak out and I fear burning out my gpu by doing that, so I leave it at 60 hz. I'd appreciate any help anyone could offer in what I might be able to do to try to raise that fps # at all because at this point I'm lucky to get 20-30 fps most of the time.
