RUnning PMDG777 with GSX

[SouthportGuy 0]

I use a gaming laptop (see specs in my sig) and during my flight I notice two things:

 

When I open the ATC window the text won't show up most of the time. Sometimes the ATC window won't open at all.

When I try to run GSX, when the menu opens the text is gone/not visible. Also noticed that AI traffic is often mostly not visible (all I will see are the AI vehicle tires running along the ground). This happens a lot of the time.

 

Before I purchased the 777 I got some fair warning that it may push the limits of my computer. But since I don't run any other addons (weather, airports) that the sim should work ok with PMDG. I guess the only addon would be GSX and may be the straw that is breaking the camel's back.

 

When doing my flight, in VC everything looks great. Flight is smooth, cockpit looks great. weather looks great. Half the time pressing F11 to see outside view results in not seeing any of the exterior textures of the 777.

 

Just wondering if it's a matter of a few adjustments or something that required reconfig.

Hi,

 

Do you have the Highmem fix set in the FSX.cfg ?

And do you run FSX with the admin rights?

I will investigate that and give it a try. Thanks!
