my vista computer has died:pop4:!
i am thinking of getting a new one with 3Ghz processor and 3GB RAM, but it is on windows 7 64 bit,
will CFS3 work!!!!

thanks for any replies! :jump:
 
YES!

But I'd get more memory than that if you're going to run a 64-bit system.

regards from a Win7 64-bit user - happy!

Agree with Hairyspin, Shop around and try to find one with more memory at least 6 or 8 on a new rig to start out with , and you can always add more if you want, and when you do get it just read over the Windows 7 install fix for CFS3

It works fine, the fix mentioned in the post below may be required on some Win 7/64 systems, mine works fine until I did a patch then I had to apply the fix. I also agree about the memory for 64 bit and gaming 4 gig of ram should be min, 6 is better and 8 is very good. I wnet to 12 gig, and I did not notice must improvement over 8 but with my Video Editing Software it makes a difference, just not much for games.
 
thanks, i knew i could rely on you guys to help!:jump:
my friend isn't that competent with computers! tried to get him to join SOH, but he's a bit scared of the internet....
 
I upgraded to win7 32bits some two months ago the only thing that I was not able to use is my old OFF2 game and missions, the OFF3 game work fine though.
 
Recently tried runnig some of the MB missions; I cant get them to start the moment I hit the fly button the ship sinks nose first.
