windows xp and new generation hardware

Postby X-EAL » Sat Nov 03, 2012 11:11 am

SINCE FSX WAS MADE FOR WINDOWS XP. WILL WINDOWS XP WORK WITH THE NEW I7-3820 SANDY BRIDGE-E CPU  AMD 7870 GRAPHICS CARD  AND MSI X79A MOTHERBOARD FOR FSX?

I tried installing XP on my new PC (specs in my sig) but I just kept getting a BSOD, so I don't think it would work on your PC either. You should just buy Win7 or 8. FSX works just fine on both of them.
