Hi all new to this forum. Need some advice about running FS9 on a vista machine!

The pc is pre built and the specs are as follows:

Processor: Intel® Core™2 Quad processor Q8200

Intel® G33 express chipset

Memory 4 GB DDR2-SDRAM

Storage 750 GB SATA 3G Hard Disk Drive (7200 rpm) up to 13 GB partition for system recovery

Video NVIDIA® GeForce™ 9500 GS with PureVideo® HD technology (DVI/VGA port, HDMI port, TV-out) 512 MB dedicated memory, up to 2303 MB total available graphics memory as allocated by Windows Vista®

I have been told that this system will not really run FSX but will it be ok for FS9? Also i realise that the Video card could be better.

Any advice?

Many thanks
Mark Huh

Laptops dont usually come with 7200 RPM HDD's do they?
