Hello,
how does FSX runs on your Vista's PC? I installed the FSX Professional Edition yesterday on my Vista RC2, and I got the impression it runs much worse than FSX demo run on XP. But Vista shouldn't have direct access to hardware resources? Like xBox does? Should have this new technology improve games performance? I don't see all these celebrated improvements... Bye, Heywood.

I ran the demo yesterday in RC2 and it seemed to run fine, for the extremely
short time I had to play with it!! I suppose my two comments about Vista would be, make sure you have a good video driver for your card, and get more memory if you see problems with hesitations and such. I was playing BF2 and an extra Gig (from 1 to 2) seemed to help greatly. Of course, someone else said they had 4 gigs and it didn't help, so just my observations. Clark "Heywood" wrote in message ...

The new autogen can murder performance around the board, try turning it down a few notches. Light bloom is also a big hit on performance. -- Paul Smith, Yeovil, UK.

I got MFSX to run on rc1 pretty good with a computer running recommended
level specs but I read about a performance Update being available for the final release of vista when that nears. "Heywood" wrote in message ... Hello, how does FSX runs on your Vista's PC?
