Postby tcco94 » Wed Apr 16, 2008 12:06 am

Okay well i have windows XP and when i got this game i dint have the DVD drive so i downloaded it on my laptop (windows vista) but once i got the DVD drive into my XP and downloaded the game it was such a change. It took way longer to download, the graphics wernt that great, and it was so so damn slow  >:(

Does anyone know how to make it faster or stop this crap? :-?

Please help me :-/

What are your specs? It looks like your system couldn't handle the graphics. When you say downloaded you mean install the game from the disk and it's not the free demo right?

First of all...

We can't tell you a thing if you don't tell us what hardware your computer has. Each computer is different so there is really no answer to how low you should turn them down.

Read here to see if your computer is up to it to run FSX.
