Recommended Posts

>>There is no plan to provide any additional fixes in SP2.>>None, zilch, nada.>>So, what is there to test?The installer once it is completed, to make sure everything got ported over and installed properly...

For all we know you are running both FSX and Acceleration on a 10 year old machine and that is the problem.Your comment(s) serve no useful purpose.CraigLian-Li PC60-B Case Corsair HX Series CMPSU-620HX 620W Power Supply Gigabyte P35 DS3R Intel Core2Duo E6850 Arctic Cooling Freezer7 Pro Crucual Ballistix 2GB PC2-8500 (DDR2-1066) EVGA 7950 GT OC 512 Mb Plextor PX-810SA/SW-BL 18X SATA DVD Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/sec Seagate Barracuda 7200.10250 GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/secCraig

>Stop the insults and sarcasm. Did the poster hurt you in some>way to attack him like you didYou don't need to compound things by quoting the entire message just for the sake of a short reply, either.I didn't read any insults, although it's clear that Ed takes exception to folks who use isegesis rather than exegesis to parse meaning from other people's writing.For that matter, so do I although I'm usually less blunt about it... ;)
