I'm looking forward to hearing from anyone.Okay, here's the deal.I want to set-up a simple FSX cockpit for things like 737, 747 or any jet, to be honest, or even one that can be used with a cessna for easy low altitude flying. Take into account I would like to make this a "desktop" pilot, with perhaps the 3 monitors (see below) on a wall shelf.Here's what I have:two LCD monitors (one 19 inch, one 20 inch) i can get one moretwo laptops (one with a 15 inch screen)Desktop computer (pentium 4, 1gig RAM, 7600 card)Saitek pro joy and throttle (willing to get a yoke like the CH with throttle, etc)going to get pedalsI imagine the following:the 2 monitors (or 3 once I add one) serving as the "scenery" screens or windshield, if you may and perhaps the autopilot panel for the jets.the 15 inch laptop as the radios, GPS and overhead panels on the right side of the deskand the smaller laptop to serve as the altimeter, attitude, chronometer, and other stuff any suggestions on set-up, including how the heck do I put these various displays on the various monitors, would be helpful.Thanks,Mike in Toronto

Hi Mike, Welcome to the club. Here is what I would do, using your equipment as it stands. I would use the P4 to run the game and the 20" monitor as my outside view. I would use the 19" monitor, through the second output from the 7600 card, to display my instrument gauges. I would, at this time, forget about the laptops.To run FS on more than one computer at a time requires the use of a second program. I think it is called

cheapest way to use the laptop is to convert them into glass cockpit displays from http://www.flightdecksoftware.com
