I have a new computer 5 months old. Stuck with Win7, which goes really well. I have a 500 gig flash drive, which makes FSX extremely fast. As you say, buy the fastest computer & video card you can afford. Elsewhere people are having good success with Win10. I use PIC737 Evolution, which is good, also FSrealWX, which is very good for weather. Make sure when you begin to install, that you thoroughly test every new addon, to avoid troubles later, when you can't find out what, is causing some significant failure! Good luck, Peter Sydney Australia

Have you gone into Control Panel, to see if there is a recent restore point? This will often work. Peter Sydney Australia

I cut my hamburgers from 28/week to 1 a day and saved the money really fast!! There you are!!! Wink! Peter Sydney Australia

Thx mate!

Al solved! Thx all! Peter Sydney Australia

All seems to be working well now! Thx! All I need to know now, is to how to change the distance to view traffic, on the Captain's instrument panel. It only appears on the co-pilot's panel, when I turn the distance knob,which does not show the necessary green TCAS sign. Any ideas of how to change the Captain's panel screen? Pete

Thx Paul! I'll try that!

I've installed UT2 on my new computer. It seems ok, but traffic almost all disappears within 5 min. at an airport. My PIC737 Evolution, instrument panel doesn't show any little diamonds during flight. The panel shows green TCAS. When traffic is visible, on the ground, all the liveries are good. FS aircraft set to maximum. Frame rates great. Any ideas on how to keep full traffic there & in the air? i7 670 GTX 970 64bit Pete Sydney Australia

Andy, Can't see what to do, to select & attach a jpeg screen shot!

Great Andy! Captured the LOC. Pressed APP, but it wouldn't start the descent. It had to land from there manually? Any ideas?

Thx Andy. I can only set the right hand NAV radio to 109.5. When I cross to the left little NAV on Auto side. There seems to be only 2 numbers available on the whole number side. I get to the Heathrow left turn to incept the VOR, everything seems in place, but it just sails past with no interception. Any ideas? Thx for your help!

That's great Tj! I've now successfully set NAV1 (manual) to 109.5. Is that all I have to do in order to do an autoland, pressing VOR LOC & then APP, on final into Heathrow?

No Andy. It makes not difference. It still won't go down to 109! Any other ideas? Thx

No, can't enter any frequencies, by any clicking or scrolling! Thx! Any other ideas? Any links? Thx for that Mjr! The scrolling works, but I want to set to 109.5 The decimals number will set, but the whole number will only go down to 118! Any other ideas!

I've just installed a new copy of Pic 737 Evolution on my new computer. It runs well, but I can't enter the radio frequency of 109.5 for arrival airport Heathrow 27L. I used to click on the radio frequency button, but nothing moves, when I do this with the new PIC 737. Any ideas? Peter Sydney Australia

Anyone? Thx Dogtrack!

I tried to install on my new computer, VFR Real Scenery Sth Britain/ Just Flight, but it won't work. I bought it 8 years ago. Should I buy a new copy? Any ideas? Peter Sydney Australia

Make sure FSX global settings slider is maxed to the right! Fixed it for me!

I've just installed PMDG 737 NGX on FSX. It installed OK but when I go to V/C cockpit view. Most of the labelling on the control panel are blurred. They are not blurred in the normal full screen view. Is this normal, if not can I fix it? Peter Sydney Australia i7 670 Nvidia 970 Solved! Thx!

Thx mate! Solved. It's been 6 years since I reinstalled FSX!

Thx! I go to FSX Settings/Display but there's nowhere I can see hardware!

How do I change the frame rate settings in FSX? Peter Sydney Australia

Thx mate , I might try that!

Thx mate! I'll try that. I wonder if PIC is compatible with x64 processor? Peter Sydney Australia No cancelling didn't fix it. Is there anywhere you can buy a new PIC737 which will work with FSX, or a very similar 737? Thx

I've just got a new computer. FSX installed ok. Win7. I then tried to install PIC737 off my disk, which at first started ok. Then it said, install to FSX?, which it started & asked did I want SP2 which it did, then the process started, after I did a cold reboot, ran FSX, exited FSX, then it would not continue with the install, no matter what I try. Any ideas, Thx Peter Sydney Australia
