This towers problem goes far past RAM with FSX

VISTA on top of it

You are beating a dead horse trying to upgrade this tower for FSX use in Vista

All you can do is work the optimize list I posted at the top of the FSX forums.. just watch for the items listed "do not do this with Vista" and then about 4-5 posts down you will find a link to FSX setup and tuning.

I must have gotten this post mixed with another.. same advice, follow my XP tuning and optimizing posts exactly and use the software I listed to defrag

then use this thread for tuning FSX and using Nhancer too

I can sit here and walk you through it.. that is why I made the threads
