If it's just a matter of installing, it makes no difference, However, you need to run REX first to set the textures that ASA will use to depict the weather.Vic

hey Vic,Thanks for your prompt reply,much appreciated!Sorry but a second question pops in here;Does it makes a difference that ASX/ASA and REX are installed on a different drive then FSX?e.g. FSX installed on a K/ drive and ASX/ASA + REX on a C/ drive?The reason being, that i have a quad-core PC with different drives, and try to get the best performances out of it.But it seems to me that sometimes FSX/videocards have problems to retrieve its data from the weather machine.I thought it might be because i installed the ASX/ASA on a different drive...Anyhow thanks for your help!Hans(Brugge,Belgium)
