Good luck with it and be patient, he found drivers for everything.
He did build his own machine so the hardware was the best and the latest on the market.
There will be some (very few) other than Flight Sim software that won't play.
I think Adobe is one.

Just reading this, and wondered whether there was any improvement over 32bit?

The news on the street - and I mean on the street - is that any Vista 32bit OS will not support more than 4Gigs of RAM and recognize even less.
So if I want MORE than 4Gigs, I have to run the 64bit OS.

That's what I've been told by the friendly computer specialist downtown (on the street) the other day

I am at the end of my wits. Period.

I run windows XP64 on a quad 2,66GHz Mac Pro. When I look up my FSX folder it is the x86 program files folder, meaning that it installed as a 32bit application (is this true?)

How can I install FSX as a 64 bit app?
