Well I finaly got it and what a differance my computer runs so much better as with FSX performance also. But now my radios dont work in FSX, any thoughts on what happind? Is there a dedicated thread somewhere on Win 7 and FSX? thanks for the help.
 
By radios not working, do you mean you can't hear anything, as in when you use the atc function in free flight you can't hear what the controller is saying? Because I am running Windows 7, and I have this problem, and I cannot hear when other players talk to one another during multiplayer..... Does anyone know why this would be so, and how to fix it?

thanks,
jp

I would consider re-installing the drivers for your sound chip / sound card / motherboard. The drivers may not be Win 7 drivers.

Yep, that's a great place to start, but do you hear other sounds, like engines and sounds when you play videos?
 
Check your windows sound configuration.

With a 2.1 sound system configured as a 6.1 system in Windows (or your sond driver config tool), ATC gets shuffeled to an extra channel which isn't output on your speakers.


At least that's what happened to me once or twice.

well it's a new win 7 install, so I would asume the correct drivers are already there? So where do I find the file to check if it's a 2.1 or 6.1? Thanks.
 
Well it finely came to me, I forgot to install Service pack 1 and 2 and now I have radio chatter.. too simple.:jump:
