August 5, 201114 yr PMDG stated on the ngx product page they highly recommend a 64 bit system. What consequence will I face from running a 32 bit system. This has me a bit worried now. anybody know? Thanks.
August 5, 201114 yr They just say that because 64-bit reduces the possibility of OOM errors in FSX. Alfredo Terrero

August 5, 201114 yr Because 32 bit Windows can only use up to 4GB of memory (only about 3.5GB will be used or shown), wheras this limitation is removed with 64 Bit. Trevor Hunt
August 5, 201114 yr Depending on the add-ons you have you may need more than 4gb of ram memory. 32bit system only uses 4gb of memory, it don't matter if you install more as of a 64bit uses all the ram memory you're capable to install on your computer.

August 5, 201114 yr Author I feel really dumb having to ask this, but what is a OOM error. Is that just a CTD?
August 5, 201114 yr OUT OF MEMORY ERROR. Exactly what the name implies, plus a CTD. A thing of the past with modern systems... ___________________________________________________________________________________ Zachary Waddell -- Caravan Driver -- Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/zwaddell Avsim ToS Avsim Screenshot Rules
August 5, 201114 yr Author question was answered while i was asking, thanks for the quick feedback everyone. So if i only have a few addon aircraft and no scenery at all installed, i should be ok?
