Hi lads

I bought FSX Gold Edition and would like to know what I should do with regards to updating the game to get it runing smoothly. Is there any software I should be aware of that makes the game more enjoyable?

So far I have maxed out the graphics to the best of my ability and it looks ok but, obviously it's a very old game.

I often lose the sound so have to restart the game and during the Learning Centre missions often the game will screw up and I have to restart the mission.
There is a contradiction between what Rod says and what he wants me to do which is very annoying during the Part 2 lessons on VOR and ATC lessons. I feel completely lost 'up there' and clueless about where i'm going and the cockpit is just a nightmare of controls, dials and radio systems lol

eeeeeeeek!!

Any advice would be greatly received as I really want to be able to take off in a jetliner, know how to get from A to B and land using ATC and VOR etc

You should download service pack 2.  What's your computer specs?

I used that "bojotes" advisor tool

Where does the cfg file go? in the main directory or sub folder?

Hi
if on win 7 you'll find the fsx.cfg file in C:\Users\YOURUSERNANE\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX.

If XP it's similar location, mydocuments is good starting point, the bit after roaming above is the same on xp.
