I have had this computer for about 4 years now and it is a good time for me to upgrade (see my PC specs and add-ons in profile). I am replacing the MOBO, adding a 4690K CPU overclock to about 4.2 GHz, 8GB RAM, 500 GB SSD and a GTX 770 video card. The rebuild is being done by the OEM. So in preparation, I have backed up the computer to a portable drive. The OEM will do a clean reinstall of Win 7 Professional onto the SSD, but I think they will wipe the 2TB HDD when they do so. On the machine now, FSX is run through the x86 Program files (because I didn't know any better). I am thinking when the machine comes back, I will be installing FSX to the SSD along with Windows, and saving the HDD for the rest of my stuff. So here we go... 1. I should completely delete all FSX add-ons and FSX before shipping it to the manufacturer? (It's FSX Gold & Acceleration) 2. Is it better to just re-download the add-ons from the respective publishers, or trust the stuff on the back-up drive (especially since they are in x86 Program files)? 3. Should I save the downloads the SSD or the HDD? 4. I have the Bojote tweaks currently. Is that still good or is the new FSX Fiber better? 5. The PMDG description of how to completely uninstall FSX, is that the best way to do it? I want to spend time flying, not tweaking when I'm done. Thanks for your collective wisdom!
