I had this bookmarked on another system, but now it only takes me to the forum home page.

I have two systems to configure and could really use this.

Thanks for any help.

You need to replace www.simviation.com with http://205.252.250.26 in the links.

XP/Windows Setup, System Optimizing and Drivers
http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1208959973


Clean FSX, Acceleration, SP1 & SP2 Install!
http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1197380641

Both of those are stickied in the FSX section. Inside them there are some links which no longer work. I'll fix them. Make sure to look at them threads because many of the links DO work, I only fixed the ones which do not.

Make sure you have the VISTA updates from Windows Update installed that address out of memory errors too.

As long as you have Vista up to date with Windows update... or SP1 for Vista installed, you should already have those patches



FSX RTM or SP1 requres the user mark the exe file manually using special software for 2GB+ use.

The Windows Tweaks and the use of support software such as O&O Defrag that I listed in another thread

http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1208959973


... which has been widely used for some time now are for Windows XP SP2, (the full version) and NOT for Windows XP SP1 and NOT for Windows Vista. They can also be applied to Windows XP x64.

UNTIL VISTA SP1 IS RELEASED, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL THE UPDATES NEEDED TO CORRECT VISTA ISSUES.

John Howard posted a list of them here and Phil Taylor also added to this thread: http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1188591122/0

8. Start the sim, set up the sliders/checkboxes as you had them. Close the sim
9. Install your addons one at a time, reboot in between and make sure you have the updates for them.


DO NOT MIGRATE the FSX.cfg file you have!
Use it to copy/paste edits but do not overwrite the new file. 
The best tweaks are now all in Windows setup and the correct use of O&O Defrag!


You may review drivers/settings and other factors about installing/uising FSX in the original posts above

Thank you very much. I don't have the time this morning to get into it, but after work I'll dig in.
