    I am currently running FS2004 with some addons and am having some problems with aircraft stability etc that may be due to my video card.
    I am currently running a e-machine T2894 with 1.5G Ram, 2.67G celeron processor, 60 G hard drive, and Verto Ge Force FX5200 Graphics card. I have been advised that the FX5200 Graphics Card was my problem, so I ordered a 512Mb PNY Ge Force 7600GS DDR2 AGP D. When I tried to install it, I did not have a AGP slot on my mother board and had to send it back. Could someone please tell me which Graphics Card I need for this computer that will give me good results with FS2004. I only see PCI slots on the motherboard.

    You will need a PCI video card, here is a list of some to choose from.

    Thanks Capt,

    Which one of these would do the best job?

    That's the best one in my opinion from the group that I showed you, there may be better choices.

    I got the visiontek video card today and installed it, but I'm not sure which display setting I should use for best results. I am not too computer savvy as I am sure you can tell, sorry to be so much trouble.
