Now THAT's something I've not heard of previously....."flushing shader cache"... What's involved? What effect? what risks? My "Shader" folder has (only?) 35MB/5 folders/1,075 files. Is this normal/average? My system (i7-2400k/8Gb ram/nV580 on Asus-Z77dL with 3xSSDs) seems to be hogging RAM. I am a newbie to the 737ngx. Love it ! But..... After even making "by the book" the first tutorial (EGKK-EHAM), I only get to right base join at Amsterdam and then I get OOM/freeze/close. Would 'flushing my cache' help?? Prior to NGX instal I could fly all night - mainly GAs - and my Ram stayed below 4-Gb. Now it is seemingly creeping up & up.....at start-up = 1.86GB. After load FSX = 2.2. By DET = 4.4 and then simply flying over the North Sea I can watch it rising (in Task Mgr)....untll total freeze, over the Dutch coast. If this isn't a cure for my ills, any OTHER ideas or suggestions ? The frustration of making a perfect departure/flight.....but not being able to land ...is driving me nuts! Any advice would be appreciated. Mac@Bath

Sorry guys, my money (UK/GBP !!) is on a Wii/X-Box compatible "run around your living room with your arms out-stretched, going "Wheeeeee"!I've just read that 'Flight' will be 10GB and run on a dual core.....Oh Dear!How much money do you think that Microsoft make from the superb artists/makers of the Add-ons that make our simming so close to reality! My Simming library now contains almost 2m files. My GA-based hardware has cost around £3k. Only £30 of that went to Microsoft....I'm quite likely to be sticking to FSX. Many of my buddies with a prefernce for 'Heavies' still prefer thier Fs9 set-ups.I honestly do believe that Microsoft will be seeking to EXTEND the audience/purchasers.....not just expecting their loyal 'oldies' to ditch thier previous investment and take up a 10GB new one.And it is likely to be launched as this year's "Christmas must-have" (for 12-year-olds) Sorry.....but for a "professional" organisation such as MIcrosoft to think that running childish "teaser" drip-ads will have us all queing up for their latest offering......well, I just hope they aren't holding their breath !!Mac@Bath
