I agree...

Mobius, are you saying that M€$ has NO FAULT over the shortcomings of a software THEY did? ???

Isn't it a lot like saying that a murderer has no fault over the people he killed because the only thing he did was to pull a trigger?

Mobius

Stop talking a complete load of **** . People complaining because MS is a succesfull company and they dont like it???? Surely you could come up with a better answer than that. How old are you?

I have an extremely high spec machine (well actually 4 of them) because I  run a flight training sim over them, FS9 runs like a dream, FSX WHEN IT RUNS IS EXCELLENT, but trying to get it to install and then stay stable is a different matter, have tried all the tweaks, most work, yes it is trial and error. But the point the person was making in first post was that MS have released it before they should have done, dont agree with the Vista bit though. If you bought a car and it didnt run you would take it back, yes? same thing, a company has a duty if they are taking money off you to supply a product that is fit for purpose (contract law states this) unfortunatly at present FSX doesnt do that.

You are obviously very lucky having a it running smoothly, the majority of people havent, so instead of attacking them over their frustrations, why dont you back up your claims and share your tweaks and fix's with the rest of the FS sim community. Bit of a no brainer really.

Thank you very much, now I'm not the only one "talking a complete load of ****".

@dougy: We were having a nice conversation there for a while, but oh well.  If you're curious about me, you could try clicking on my name, or this link HERE.  If that doesn't tell you enough about me, my name is Mike, I'm 20 and from Wisconsin, a student in Mechanical Engineering, and I like long walks on the beach and pepperoni pizza.  If you can give me a better reason why people hate Microsoft, please, enlighten us.  I believe that is the reason people dislike Microsoft because whenever certain people post about Microsoft, it's not MS, is M$, amongst other things.  Like I said, I've not had a single problem with FSX (other than the Airbus rudder), and I've heard many more people who haven't had a problem.  In addition, every major game-reviewing organization has rated FSX highly (higher than FS9 often), and failed to notice these game-stopping glitches and bugs you guys have noticed.  If you want my tweaks and fixes, turn your settings down until your PC can actually handle it.  In addition to the tweaks posted here, I have done nothing else to my FSX to adjust it.  There, I've already said I was done with this thread, and apparently I've lied, so unless anyone else wants to personally attack me, I'm done (again).

mobius im with u

how in any way is it M$ fault that ur PC can not run FSX, its not its your fault for buying it without checking the specs like everyone with a brain does.
and yet some one else telling us why M$ have released it so early, im grateful for the early release of FSX adn im enjoying it.
so stop whining, check the specs and STFU about M$ being evil and scamming!

Thank goodness you don' t have to "tweek" software from Adobe, Macromedia, Corel, Bryce, Xara, Swishmax, Jasc, etc,etc,etc,etc,etc,etc to get it to run as advertised right out of the box.

My system met the minimum system requirement. Same as it does for all the above software companies.

Maybe this site should be renamed from Simviation to Tweekviation.

According to what I am reading here, it is ok for a company to rip you off because (1) they are successful, (2) that is just a sound businiss policy and (3) it is a free market. Ok, if you say so. Afterall, you are the master tweekers. As for me, I'll stick with software that I don't have to tweek.

"It's not my fault I put you under my car while you were crossing. It's YOUR fault to not have cleared the road crossing fast enough, you pirla."

Continue thinking this way and you'll have a successful career in your government, wherever you're from.
