Dear CFs 3 Folks and Fans ,
               I am  pilot and Avid Sim fan who started flying sims on my vic 20 ( Chopper Command I think was the game ). I have owned CFS , CFS 2 ,all the MS FS Series , and now am the proud owner of CFS 3 ( again ) .
              I bought the game when it first came out , but returned it cause it suked on my machine . See , I was holding on to my 800mhz .
              Recently I upgraded my PC , and reconfigured my machine and decided to try CFS3 again. To MY AMAZMENT. Sure the game needed tweaking for my system but what PC game doesnt ?
             I am proud to say that it seems to work SEEMLESSLY on my system with everything I am running in the backround to boot ( and I run allott )
              Here are my system specs if it helps anyone:
     Windows XP Home
      AMD xp2400 ( 2.0 gig )
     VIA Generic 400mhz fsb
     1gig PC2100 Ram
     NVIdia Gforce 2 Pro 64meg
     Matrox Dual Monitor Controller
( A great thing if you can afford it , combines with Gforce to support 3 monitors , and an SVideo Out so my friends can watch it on my TV while I play. ) ( Very fun at partys )
     Sound Blaster Live

Controller : SAITEK X45 ( GREAT STIK ) ( No FF  )

Running in Backround :
     GAME VOICE ( Another great MS Product )

          Although taking about 3 hours to configure , CFS 3 has really highted my flight experiance.I would reccomend it to anyone.
