FSX will not install
Bill:You don't need to do anything fancy. Just create an empty folder on yourdesktop, then copy and paste ALL the files from both DVD's into it.After it's finished you can you can install from there.

Intro and a quick question about trim
Welcome:If you're talking about elevator trim, it's nearly impossible to dousing the trim control only.The easiest way I've found is to establish level flight and desiredIAS. Then trim as close as you can with trim tab. Finally use your VSIand THROTTLE to nail it. IE: If you notice the VSI showing a slightclimb, reduce the throttle slightly. It's the ONLY way I can get it"On the money".

Simplify O&O Defrag With FSX Install?

Losing CH yoke inputs
delta november replied to scoochy's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etcI used to have the same thing happen while in flight if I hadn't touchedthe yoke for quite awhile. The same thing would happen if I paused thesim for any length of time. All my assignments would show ok but no control. When I paused it on the ground, I'd come back to find theview continually panning. Even shutting down the sim and restartingwouldn't stop it.In my case I believe it was a Windows issue because I had to rebootand then it would be recognized. I later found out that just unplugingand repluging the yoke, with FS9 still running, would force it to be recognized.

Well in Fla or the South of Spain a cardboard box might not be toobad, but where I live they're kinda drafty.:-violin Yes and I'd always heard "If it comes equipped with tires or ___you gonna have trouble with it.":-zhelp As to the racy vs the durable,hopefully you'll outgrow the finicky, High Maintenance equipment.I believe it was W.C. Fields who said "Ah yes; I was once married to abeautiful blond......She drove me to drink....it's the only thing I'mindebted to her for." :-badteeth :-beerchug

Anyone know how to address my final remaining issue with FSX?
I used to have the same thing happen in FS9 and something similar towhat your doing would "Fix" it for awhile. I'd click "exit flight"when the dialog box came up that said....do want to end flight, I'dclick no and the flight would resume with increased performance.It's almost got to be an issue of memory not being released.

Peter:Was going to post and see if anyone knew where you had gone.I seem to remember you mentioning some AHEM! marital difficulties andwas hoping that you were not sleeping in a cardboard box somewhere:-roll A buddy of mine came home from a week on the road and found a completelybare house and equally bare bank accounts.My EX was thoughtful enough to leave a mattress, blanket, table and chair, one set of silverware, a cast iron skillet, and the fridge.Seems she didn't need the fridge as it was furnished in her apartment.Anyhow....Welcome back!!!

Challenging/Interesting Approaches
There are a whole series of "Dangerous and difficult approaches" in theAVSIM library. They were compiled for FS9 as flight files but I don'tknow if FS9 .flt files work in FSX. But you could have a look at themand set some up for FSX if they don't.

Should I be getting 4.8-5.1 fps with these stats?
I think you'll find if you cut AI traffic back to 15%...autogen to sparse... water to 1x ...bloom shadows off,and weather to fair, you'll get 20 plus most places with every thing else set pretty high.I know I do and my specs are inferior to yours.

Popping / Crackling sound fsx/ fs2004 worse when around bussy airports
Try this:Click start...run, type "dxdiag". Click "OK". This will bring upthe Direct X interface.Select the sound 1 tab and lower the acceleration slider a notch or two.Do the same for the sound 2 tab it might help the problem.Bert is absolutely right, this kind of indicates that you are at theragged edge of your systems capability, so reducing in sim sliderswould help as well.
