• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Win 7 64 bit finally (from XP 32)

Finally got a new HD and installed win 7 on it. All other hardware remained the same. This is still the same computer txnetcop speced for me a couple of Xmas's ago. (that being because my old one died on xmas day!)

Anywho reinstalling FSX, SP1, SP2 everything works like a champ. Found 64 bit drivers for everything and everything I can throw at it is smooth as silk. FSX never ran better: the difference is noticeable, especially for texture loading. I don't notice it at all now! Not sure if that is 64 bit, or win7, or what... but I'll take it.

Still loading, updating, updating the updates, etc. for all the other software. Ok, not a new toy. But sort of feels like one! :wiggle:
