Can I ask what the specs are on your "old" computer that runs FSX well?
I'm still on FS9 and it runs perfectly with every wide open, and several payware scenery add-on's.
I've had no intentions of moving to FSX only because the demo is running so poorly on my computer.
I get 40-60fps w/ FS9, and about 12-15fps w/ FSX demo, not even fully loaded.
My old PC couldn't run FSX.....only FS9. had a 128Mb Radeon9800, AMD 64 processor and 1GB of RAM....pretty awful

Mic my old pal, your X shots are making me sooooo jealous. Great scenery and angles. You heading up with C and me when he gets 9 sorted out?
It'll be just like old times..

Of course Danny......those were the days....

Baron 58TC anyone
