Flight Simulation enthusiasts never can have enough viewing space to display all the window views, GPS, navigation or communication panels or flight maps.

Instead of purchasing expensive additional monitors and pricey multi-output VGA cards, MaxiVista now allows using up to three Laptops as additional multi monitors of your primary PC.
Even dated Windows 98 PCs can find a new and useful purpose to maximize your viewing space.
No additional hardware required
MaxiVista overcomes the limitation that computers do not have VGA inputs, and thus normally cannot be used as a monitor. The patent-pending software solution includes a virtual graphics adapter which fakes the primary PC into believing that there is an additional monitor display installed. The screen content of this extra display is transmitted to the secondary PC via a Wireless LAN or Ethernet connection.
Support of up to 12,800 x 1,200 pixels
MaxiVista works fine even on existing multi-monitor setups and the full version can link up to three additional computers to create a giant workspace of up to 12,800x1,200 pixels screen resolution.
MaxiVista and MS Flight Simulator 2004
These hints help to get the most out of MaxiVista when running MS Flight Simulator:
- Installation of the FS2004 service pack is recommended
- Disable the full-screen mode and 'unlock' additional windows to be able to drag them onto the additional MaxiVista monitors
- Hide the menu bar in FS 2004 and let Windows 'auto-hide' the task bar to maximize the viewing space on your primary monitor
Further information including a multi-lingual 30 days trial version is available at www.maxivista.com. The full version cost US $49.95.
