I recently had to do a clean reinstall on My system and have been unable to get my sound working as before. Somehow is was able to get it on previous installs but am at a loss this time. I have an Asus p877-V Pro mobo and want engines noise thru the rear speakers (creative 2.0 connected to the rear panel RR/RL port and ATC/Communications thru the front panel via a USB head set. When I test the devices thru the Realtec audio manager all work but I cannot get any sound out of the rear speakers in application even thought selected as default device. The headst does do so if selected as the default. I know its a simple setup issue but I'm at a loss. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Kevin. I looked at the export list 5 times and didn't see it. I do now. Too long in front of the computer I guess.

I might be missing something but has anyone figured out a way to export a .pln file to FSX. I can't find it. Exporting the route to the NGX works fine but I also need it in FSX as I use VOXATC. I'd hate to have to key it in. Thanks in advance. Richard Johnson

I am using all three with nearly the same hardware setup as yours and have experienced not problem whatsoever. I personally like AS2012 for weather and am using their textures, Richard

I've twice been given a Loop 6 departure out of KLAX. On both ocassions I've been told to "climb and maintain" without a specified altitude. This happens both in the clearance and when I contact the tower when ready for take off.In both situations I have to repeat the "climb and maintain" readbck several times before being able to proceed. Anyone have any ideas? I've flown other SIDs without this happening. Richard Johnson

I've used Radar contact extensively with all the FS2crew NGX releases and not had any issues for what its worth. Richard Johnson

Thanks! What a great world it would be if everyone responded with your kind of customer service. Richard

Great. Thanks Brian. One other minor thing I've noticed is that when the FO is ready for the approach checklist, if any command is recognized as "set" (even if I cough into the mike) I get approch checklist complete despite not calling for the checklist. Don't know if this is my issue or a slight bug. Thanks in advance. Richard

Bryan, I'm also using win7/64 bit. Thanks, Richard Johnson

Bryan, I think John's question regarded the takeoff speeds, not the MCP response. The MCP works fine for me but I have the same problem as John in that V1, Vr, and V2 don't seem to be recognized although the green bar shows the proper response. I generally just followup with "set" to proceed with the checklist. Another question...it appears that I have to set the FO's altimeter mode from in hg (my default) to Hpa if I'm flying outside the US. Is this correct? Aside from the takeoff speed issue (minor) everything has worked flawlessly since SP1 ... a really great product! I comend you for the excellent followup to user questions and overall customer support. Thanks. Richard Johnson

OK, I've got everything up and running and am pretty satisfied.(getting 30 fps with the external limiter running). I'd like to enhance the VC graphics a bit but haven't fooled with it yet. I've also had some issues with the sound levels fading in and out (PMDG NGX) and have yet to chase it down.Last question, what benefit would I expect from over clocking the CPU and is it worth the risk?Thanks for all your help!!!!

Yes, HT threading is on as I see eight cores. Do you recommend using it and if not how do I turn it off (in the bios possibly)?Richard

Your right, it's core 1. Affinity mask set at 224. How dow I check the HT. Is it in the config file or elsewhere?

OK guys, I went with your advice and built a new system with the I7 2600 processor and the 560 GPU. Things look pretty good. I used the Bojote tweaking tool as well. Only issue is that CPU 0 is maxed out. I wouldn't thinks this is normal. Any ideas?ThanksRichard

Thanks guys!No, I don't have any antialiasing & anisotropic filtering on (honestly wasn't aware of it). Resolution set at 1280 x 1024. I do get some shimmering in th VC and it's not quite crisp..I'd like better as I'm guessing we all do.I've checked around at a local outlet and can get a GTX 560 and 650w PSU that should fit in my tower for about $210. I might be able to do better on line but have the hastle if it doesn't fit. Is the 560 a good choice?I also was told that I should be able to use my current Win 7 licence if I rebuild (go to a intell system) and ultimately that's what I intend to do based on your inputs. I just want to make sure that the GPU and PSU I install in the interim don't leave me disappointed later. Comments and thanks>Richard
