Can FS play on a laptop? I have a new samsung R730 3GB 400GB?FS9 or FSX. :( :(

Can you provide more spec.s?

Have been running FS9 on my current medium-spec laptop for the last two years with no issues (WinXP, AMD Turion 64x2 twin core, 2GB RAM, Radeon x1250 graphics), frames per sec averaging 15-20, most settings maxed. I have just ordered a Sony Vaio (W7 64 bit, Intel Core i5-430M, 4GB RAM, Radeon HD5470 graphics) which will run FS9 even better and may even make a good fist at FSX. I see that the Samsung blurb doesn't mention graphics for the R730, so this might be an issue for you.;)

Both run fine here on a Samsung R580 with 4Gb RAM and the NVidia Graphics card.

FSX and FS9n run okay on my HP Pavilion dv2000 laptop. With FS, the amount of, and speed of, the RAM and CPU are the important factors, the graphics card (if it has one) is of less importance.Al

Another fs user on a laptop here, And since using a laptop for about 3 years now, i would never go back to a desktop. Just a personal preference though.

I have an old Asus G1 ( 2GHz Core Duo, Geforce to go 7700, 2 gigs ram) that runs FS9 pretty good. I get around 25-30 fps on outside views and 20 fps when using PMDG 747 in cockpit views. I run with FSgenesis mesh, flight environment, Ultimate Terrain, Ultimate traffic,, AS6.5, radar contact, PMDG 737,747 and level D 767.Pretty much a laptop person since buying my G1, haven

I would like to thank everyone who have replied.Thank youPaul :(

FS2004 can still make breathtaking on older hardware. I'm very satisfied of what it looks like on my old laptop... Actually it's a dinosaur by today's standards: Acer Aspire 2023WMLi. It got some minor upgrades over time...- Intel Centrino 1.6Ghz (32-bits 1-core)- 2GB DDR- 250GB HDD- ATI Mobility 9700 128MB- Windows 7I'm very pleased with the way FS2004 looks like on that dinosaur. It's a matter of keeping things tidy & well configured (balanced)- FS 2004 v9.1- FS Global 2010- Ground Environment Pro- REX 2004- Zinertek WaterFX- Wilco Airbus Series I & II- PMDG 737-800/900- Aerosoft airports like Brussels, Heathrow, Charles-de-Gaulle, Madrid,...- Bloom-hackWell... FS2004 looks way better than anything I can get with FSX ^^"

Well... FS2004 looks way better than anything I can get with FSX ^^"As it does on mine. I am running FS9 with Rex and GE PRo 2 with all sliders off to the right. With a PMDG 747 I am getting 58 fps (target set - 60fps) even with heavy cloud set.I have a Toshiba A500 with 4Gb. Dual Core 2.66ghz CPU and 1Gb dedicated video. FS9 absolutely flies. The lowest fps I have reached has been 42 fps using PMDG 747 around Heathrow. I could run FSX but why run something at 20 fps when I can get these figures with such great scenery and clouds?Gerry
