When I speed up time past 100 times faster then normal delta glider starts jumping up and down at 1000 times faster the delta glider tumbles out of control and gets off course is there a patch or setting I need to install or how do I stop this
 
Disable autopilots before you time-accelerate past 100x.
 
Also, if you didn't have any autopilots on in the first place, make sure there isn't accidentally a thruster stuck firing. That too will cause what you described.
 
If you use OrbitSound, open the OrbitSound Configurator. You will see an option to "Disable Autopilots at higher than 10x Time Accelleration" (only works on the "stock" APs).

This will prevent problems if you forget to disable the AP before time warping.
 
It's quite fun (or though very destructive) to do big time jumps and see what mess the AP has got you into...

The APs work on time steps related to real time, so if you consider time at x100 or x100, one very small burst of a RCS jet from the AP may actually be several seconds worth in sim time - simply because the sim time is going to fast for Orbiter to catch up. Or something like that.

Sorry, I should really try to stop explaining complicated things - I always muddle up...
