Yeah I felt the same way. For deactivation, just the: * PMDG NGX and 777 (via the FMC under license) * FS Dream Team addons/sceneries via the addon manager (FSX menu). It's probably not critical to deactive, but those addons will sense a hardware change. Deactivating before a hardware change saves you an activation on your credits (I think you get like 5 before you have to contact the vendor). I was also worried about Windows 7 OEM activation, but I just had to press online validation and it worked fine (no repurchase required). I forgot to mention, when you first boot up Windows, have the motherboard driver installation disk and run the setup so it will go through the driver install process. After a few installs/restarts you should be up and running. Enjoy! I think you will be shocked by the difference.

I just did exactly that; from i7 920 to i5 6600k. It worked fine. Just make sure you deactivate your addons before the switch. I had read it is best to reinstall, but I had no issues. By the way, my 6600k overclocked to 4.7 GHz and I get about 50% more fps. It is a beast, I love it!

I was a bit nervous about purchasing this, but I was blown away. The performance is good, I love the details, and I especially love the autogen on the hill to the east of the field and on the 27 departure! I was impressed.

All, I have this same issue; at 4% loading, right after a click sound in the cockpit and the trim wheel spin sounds. I did some testing to confirm: I can save a flight at cruise and reload, however if I start the decent for arrival and save that flight (less than 1 minute later) it will not reload. All the saved flights I tried thereafter will not reload (approach and landing). I will submit a ticket with all the details, but I got some specific information in a report that may help others: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: fsx.exe Application Version: 10.0.61637.0 Application Timestamp: 46fadb14 Fault Module Name: PMDG_737NGX.DLLI can confirm that I tried rebuilding the FSX.cfg file and I went through all the information in the INTRODUCTION. The only other software I am running is EZDOK. I will continue testing and submit a ticket, but I wanted to see if this information might help the community. Thanks, Nathan Faber
