Lucid Virtu Won't Support FSX Acceleration in iMode
I just upgraded my system to a 2500K CPU on a Z68X board which has Virtu bundled in. When I have the monitor connected to the IGP in iMode, FSX worked OK. However, after I installed FSX Accelration pack, FSX complained about the IGP for not meeting minimum requirement and aborted. Is that your experience too?CheersM Tan

2 free utilities that increased my fps greatly!
I can't get Smartclose to run properly. When I click on the icon, nothing happens. The wizard doesn't appear. When I run it in a command box with parameters like /config and /setting, it works. But not in Windows.I disabled my spyware, still it doesn't run properly. Anybody has any idea?M Tan-------------------------AMD Dual Athlon 4400+ @211 2G XFX Geforce 7900GSViewSonic 21" VX2025WMXP SP2

What setup do you use to show off FS9 to guest?
I have PMDG 747 takes off from Meigh and autoland at KORD 27L. May be turn the time to night and let them enjoy the lights too. Not possible? Yes, you can. Just fill fuel to 10% capacity. -------------------------AMD Dual Athlon 4400+ @211 2G XFX Geforce 7900GSViewSonic 21" VX2025WMXP SP2

Always Completing Setup and Building Database
Yes - I use the Scenery Config utility (scm2004.exe). But I have examined all the entries and they all look fine to me.-------------------------AMD Dual Athlon 4400+ @211 2G XFX Geforce 7900GSViewSonic 21" VX2025WMXP SP2

Always Completing Setup and Building Database
I didn't disable the last access time stamp. Actually, the scenery.dat was updated when I deliberately made a change. But the time stamp of the scenery.dat remained the same while FS keeps building a new database everytime it got started. Don't understand! :-roll M Tan-------------------------AMD Dual Athlon 4400+ @211 2G XFX Geforce 7900GSViewSonic 21" VX2025WMXP SP2

FSX future...
One good thing to do is to benchmark your PC to make sure that your PC is running at the optimum setting, FS tweaks aside. In my case, I thought I was until I ran 3dMark05 and found that I am way back with other people with similar components. I ended up tweaking my CPU a bit. But Coolbits really helps in squeezing the best from my video card. My FSX fps is around 15-20 in most regions.M Tan -------------------------AMD Dual Athlon 4400+ @211 2G Geforce 7900GSViewSonic 21" VX2025WMXP SP2

Always Completing Setup and Building Database
My FS9 startup is a bit strange lately. It always goes through the scenery indexing even though I have not touched the Scenery.cfg file. Any idea why it does that? I have examined the scenery.cfg file, nothing unusual.M Tan -------------------------AMD Dual Athlon 4400+ 2G Geforce 7900GSViewSonic 21" VX2025WMXP SP2

FSX Installation Woes
I was pulling my hair for a whole week trying to install FSX. I got all sort of errors, read errors, write errors, access right and what have you. I even posted the DVDs back for an exchange, blaming bad DVDs. All the error messages led me to bark at the wrong tree. The real issue - the DVD drive.I was using my sole DVD drive - a DVD writer to install FSX. For some strange reason, a DVD writer isn't a good reader. When it finally dawned on me that it could be the drive, I pulled out my old DVD ROM, connected it to the machine and the whole installation went through without a glitch! So if you have installation problems and you are using a DVD writer, be warned! :-wave M Tan-------------------------ASRock 939Dual SATA2AMD Dual Athlon 4400+ 2G Geforce 7900GSViewSonic 21" VX2025WMXP SP2

Full Installation
I read somewhere that you can do full installation that takes up to 60G. I just installed FSX. There is no option for full installation. Did I miss something? :-roll M Tan

Strange EICAS Behaviour 747-400
I couldn't get lower EICAS to show the relevant information when I click on ENG/FUEL/GEAR etc on the EICAS MCP. The display remained the same with engine information and won't respond to clicks. That's the problem I have when the engines are started from cold and dark. EICAS won't change after the engines are started.When I started with hot engines, ready to roll on the runway, lower EICAS works properly. EICAS window responded to clicks. Strange? What's the theorey here?Regards.

Anybody using SLI with FS2004?
mtan002 replied to a post in a topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etcI read in the Computer Pilot magazine that ATI has this Crossfire that is akin to the SLI of nVidia. It makes use of a X800/900 plus a Crossfire card. I am very interested in the set up as I am a ATI user too. The problem now is waiting on a CrossFire-enabled mobo. Both ASUS and ABIT have announced one. But still not available yet.M TanYSCBASUS P4C800 E + [email protected] + Corsair DDR500 1G + ATI9600XT + WD Rafter 3.6 + water cooled
