Flight Unlimited III on XP ?

Postby fearlessflyer » Fri Apr 09, 2004 8:26 pm

Hi - I just joined the forum. I have a question. I have a new PC - Dell XPS, Pentium4, 3GHz, ATI 9800XT. I am having a great time with FS2004 but one of my favorite flight sim on my old computer (Win98) was Flight Unlimited III. Is any one running this FS with XP and a 256MB video card. I tried to install it but got a message that I should check the Looking Glass web site before installing. I gather Looking Glass is no longer as I can find no web site for them. Its no big deal but I wondwe if anyone is running this FS on a PC like the one I have.

With windows XP you should be able to use the program compatibility wizard to get older games and software to work...

Sometimes it works, other times I have no luck...

hope it works for you! :-)

I used to run Mig Alley, great game. Does not work right on XP no-matter what you do. The company never released a patch neither.
