WIN 7

Vista is garbage... Win7 is vista fixed.

Just got a Dell Studio XPS 8000 with Win 7 Home Premium, and it works fine for FSX - much better performance than my Win XP system. I have the Intel i5 CPU, and Win 7 seems to be much better at using all four CPU cores for FSX. I don't think you can actually get Vista any more without a lot of trouble - and Win 7 has many improvements over Vista - it has been called Vista SP3. If you are moving from Win XP, however, you will need to do a fresh install of Win 7 - you can't update in place. My FSX program and scenery files have installed fine - my only incompatibility so far is with EZ Walk Camera software.

i went to win 7 64 and am totally happy. only prog that isnt supported so far is voice buddy. and a much friendlier OS in any case.

No problems with any of my add on's with Win 7 either. Rex looks good as well
