December 8, 201213 yr We are happy to announce that we have opened the WIN 8 OS forum for those of you that are new owners, or have questions, of this OS. Many of the new desktops and laptops come with WIN8 today, and there are sure to be users who will have questions about adding their FS and add-on's to their new system.
December 11, 201213 yr Been running Windows 8 for awhile now. Fsx is running great and havent had any problems so far. Cant waitbto see others experiences with it. Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
December 11, 201213 yr Installed Windows 8 and could not change screen resolution, so played with the PC screen resolution for a while, the Spy Game went out and I thought it was a problem with Windows 8 so reinstalled FSX but now cannot open the program...any ideas?
December 13, 201213 yr You did install all the drivers and dependencies, right? Jude BradleyBeech Baron: Uh, Tower, verify you want me to taxi in front of the 747?ATC: Yeah, it's OK. He's not hungry.

December 14, 201213 yr Solved the screen resolution problem, now I am not able to run FSX in any mode...the initial screen opens up and after a 10 seconds it goes off and back to desktop. Did a repair installation with same results...GROUNDED....!!!!
December 16, 201213 yr Make sure you have visual studio 2008 resistributables installed. DId you install as administrator in Windows 8? Win 8 has more stricter policies than Windows 7 did.

December 17, 201213 yr Been using W8 for a month and I am quite comfortable with it. Loading the OS is ultra fast. FSX runs well. It will take time for some add-ons to catch up. Other than that it's A-OK Mario Bergeron
