Hi guys,
Got FSX on the pc (which currenly needs a heck of alot more memory…solutions??) but i also have a spitfire add on.
Now i can run and work the flight sim ok and i have installed all of the software for both programes but how do i get the spitfire add on to run?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

i suppose it entirely depends upon what flight sims you intend on using, and how much money you’ve got to spend.
Where are you guys based?

Hi guys,
I think im going to need more RAM and memory and possibly a better graphics card.
Even tho its okie id like it to run brilliantly.
Whats the thing i need to do to clear out all the rubbish, like keys pressed etc etc?
Thanks

Fsx needs Processor power and RAM.
My flightsim PC’s are always dedicated to FS. In other words, I don’t have lots of other random software running in the background, it will take a big toll on FSX performance, especially on an already marginal system.
Use msconfig to get rid of any rubbish running in the background, do a defrag and lower some of the setting in FSX. Alternatively just keep with a prior version of FS, they are much more forgiving, but the eyecandy is not a good.

I’m assuming that instead of a hard drive, you mean that you need additional hardware to make the game run more smoothly? A few years ago, I had the same problem with Flight Simulator 2004 and the cheapest upgrade for me was some additional RAM, which I think cost about £40, and that made a huge difference to game play.

Thanks for that, got it working
Must get the hunter 😛
I think im slowly running out of memory on my pc to run fsx etc etc
Is there anyway i could increase the memory etc etc to make it run better
thanks

where did you get the spitfire addon? you generally have to copy the files into the FSX destination directory
like sounds into sounds
textures into textures etc
most of them are in the “aeroplane” folder (or at least it was for fs2003)
memory wise, are you talking about Hard drive space or Ram?
you cant do anything about hard drive space, if its using lots of ram, them you need a better pc :diablo:
