hello, i've never asked questions before but am looking for fast help now.I've just been diagnosed with terminal cancer, "months - not years" timeframe. thankyou for kind thoughts.So now the race is on for a soon to be bed bound pilot. I want to setup a harddrive to use FSX or an earlier version (which I have most) to run with the best performance with most graphics turned on for less than say AU$2000 with a 22" LCD TV as the monitor if possible. refresh rates? So the clouds look reel and I can feel the rain on my face. 7 years ago I previously assembled an amatuerish 5 screen wideview arrangement. I have 60 real time hours in a cessna 172, 15 in 182, 16 in a R22 robinson, 150 in a hanglider and 15 in a paraglider. I am out of touch with computer talk and understandin so please be gentle.this is a link to my local parts shop but I don't know what is best choice. http://www.msy.com.au/Parts/PARTS.pdfI have a CH yoke and rudder pedals.thanks got to go for a minute or two.thanks heaps
