Thanks guys>Paul We are all in a certain way new to FSX ;-) so rest assure we all have to do a lot of research...As with FS2004 you need to find the perfect balance with the sliders for your system and personal preferences...All to the right isn't realistic at all because there isn't hardware that can run this beautiful "beast" We have comparable systems only I'm running a 7950GT 570 512md ddr3 vga and 4 gb of ram and by all means no vista...Have a lot of experiences with new O.S. and always wait for the first SP1 (before that have seen many R.C. and tested lol)So for the Vista part other guys can jump in for some advices...Make also sure to replace the default AI which is a real FPS killer... As for sliders the following could be a good starting point ;-) remember every system and configurations is different to have this "beast" under control...[sCENERY]LENSFLARE=0DAWN_DUSK_SMOOTHING=1IMAGE_COMPLEXITY=5SmallPartRejectRadius=1.00[TrafficManager]AirlineDensity=32GADensity=0FreewayDensity=10ShipsAndFerriesDensity=0LeisureBoatsDensity=0IFROnly=0AIRPORT_SCENERY_DENSITY=1[TERRAIN]LOD_RADIUS=4.500000MESH_COMPLEXITY=51MESH_RESOLUTION=19TEXTURE_RESOLUTION=25AUTOGEN_DENSITY=1DETAIL_TEXTURE=1WATER_EFFECTS=4SWAP_WAIT_TIMEOUT=30.00TEXTURE_BANDWIDTH_MULT=40UPPER_FRAMERATE_LIMIT=24TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD=1024NUM_LIGHTS=8AIRCRAFT_SHADOWS=0AIRCRAFT_REFLECTIONS=1COCKPIT_HIGH_LOD=1LANDING_LIGHTS=1AC_SELF_SHADOW=0EFFECTS_QUALITY=2GROUND_SHADOWS=0TEXTURE_QUALITY=3IMAGE_QUALITY=0[TERRRAIN]TERRAIN_MAX_AUTOGEN_TREES_PER_CELL=1000.00TERRAIN_MAX_AUTOGEN_BUILDINGS_PER_CELL=10.00Hope it's helpful just trial and error to find the perfect balance for your particular system and preferences ;-)Andr
