Then hope FSX and maybe even FS2004 will work without too much stress and aggravation.

May 1, 20188 yr Author Okay, parts are on order. When I get it all put together I'll give an update. Thanks everyone for all the feedback.
May 8, 20188 yr Author After a few tense moments not knowing why the new rig wouldn't boot up (it was just a monitor connection issue), it's up and running with all my add-ons installed and working. And I have to say, wow, it's a big difference! I can actually take off and land in New York smoothly with add-on planes 😄. So, I just want to say thank you all for the encouragement and tips. The upgrade was way overdue and seems to be a grand success.
