Man I have been considering XP Pro 64 instead of XP Pro 32 but some of the sofware from what I have I don't know if I could the driver install CD for my MB dont run in 64 so it makes using 64 edition hard to get running. I have had up here for a while but it wont do much for me if I did especialy since using the keycode for Xp and FSX.I notice I am not the only person watching this forum like a hawk all day long cause I aint got nothing better to do while cruising or not doing nothing at all.Thank YouCapt.

Paul, and ofcourse all the other PMDG people, this is the real beast we've been waiting for all that years! And finally we see more and more of her and evuentually fly her with our own hands (uuh yoke :()!! I say: "Keep them coming, as this makes my days good!"Best regards, Joey

Eric,One of the beta guys is running XP Pro 64 and is really happy with the performance he is seeing. I believe he said it was the most stable FS platform he has encountered.Mark

Sir Joey, I agree with you 100%. Got to ask PMDG a question, I was looking at the overhead panel shot and wondered something does the dim switches we see the light test video work in the 2D view and if so are they equiped on the over head panel. I see an indication that apears to be the switches. I just want to ask to be acurate.Thank YouCapt. Eric Wade Joneswww.usairwaysva.orghttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/1900driver.jpg

Have just found Steve Hall's (aka Cowpatz) RNAV procedures so will be going for a test flight in there this afternoon. Sceen shots will be provided.Link to the procedures below, note that they are still in Alpha, not sure how this will go but let's have a try!http://www.vatnz.net/files/NZQN.txt

Eric,if you mean the possibility to dim the overhead panel lights, yes this is working in VC and 2D.Regards,Markus

For performance, that's such a complex subject because there are a million different variables at play, but what I can say is that on my Asus G1S Notebook with Vista, performance, in general, is more than satisfactory.At least for me, the MD11 is decidedly not a frame-rate hog, which is pretty impressive for a plane of this complexity and depth.Cheers,Bryan

Hey Mark,Thanks a lot for the explanation, it seems a very innovative system.Best Regards,Dinshaw.
