Personally I prefer 18 over 12, but that is me.

I had this problem everytime I started. I had to fiddle with Alt+Enter and other stuff just to be able to see the screen. Finally, in the cfg file . under [Main] I made Maximized=1 and I haven't had the problem since. It can't hurt to try it, it worked for me. You can change back to full screen mode after the sim starts up via Alt+Enter.

New iMAC and FSX
Garrett67 replied to a topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etc
I can't speak for the Mac Pro or Windows 7 but on my iMac running bootcamp, I have tried repeatedly to install the ATI drivers for XP but they always say they are the same version after the install. This is my first Mac, so I'm not sure what the deal is with it. Perhaps they can only be updated from the Mac side. I don't even think that makes sense really. Even with that said, FSX still runs fine like I mentioned above. The only other issue I have (sometimes) is with the Orbx scenery, I get tears in the some of the textures. Since I can't figure out if my ATI drivers update, I can't say for sure if that would fix that or not but its not a huge issue anyway. -

I realize this post is old but, I can tell you that FSX runs great on that particular iMac. I just got mine 2 weeks ago and I can crank everything pretty high and get about 25-40 FPS. It can get a little rough with alot of clouds but I normally fly with some white puffy clouds. Mind you, I'm running at 2560 x 1440 and let me tell you, the iMac 27" display is VERY sharp!You can get FSX to run very well and fairly high settings. l am pleasantly surprised. -
100+ FPS with FSX

Bravo! :( -
I love the add on and although I have a fairly decent system, Plan G chugs when I'm running that along with FSX.

New PC Spec advice

I'm looking to build a PC and am looking at that CPU and MOBO. Update is on how it runs FSX please (when you're done).Thanks! -
Make sure you have plenty of free disk space

I remember when 6GB HDD's just came out (1999 maybe?) and we all said "You'll NEVER use that much space" LOLI currently have a 320 GB hard drive and I think I have about 140 GB's left. I believe FS (and associated files) take up nearly 40 GB's. -
FSX: Acceleration Progressive Taxi not working

Did the Beta team do ANY flying ? One flight would have caught so many of the problems that are being discovered.
