I thank all of you for the very good ideas you supplied. I will try all of them. Thanks again.

I can't re- install FSX. The installation wizard gets to "removing applications" and hangs up. I have removed all the old files I can find including fsx.cfg and it still hangs up. All help will be appreciated.

Thanks

Don

I didn't see anything pertaining to Mesh unless that is the default terrain at level 115.

Thanks

Don

My terrain mesh scenery or what I actually see from the air is terrible. It is a checkerboard of green and tan colored squares and you can see the lines that divide the squares from each other. I have played with the sliders on Options/settings/display/scenery, but can't seem to find at least a tolerable solution. Is there any other place where terrain mesh can be adjusted? Perhaps in the FSX config file?

Thanks to all, Don

Thanks for your reply. When I click on the object it turns orange , then I when right click , the Lock Object option doesn't appear as an option. I'm trying to edit a VOR range and this happens with several airports.

Thanks

Some of my scenery objects are user locked in the edit box. How do I unlock it.

Thanks

Yes that works. I thank you very much for your help.

I am having a problem with raising the seat or raising or lowering the eye point with the 2D cockpit only. Shift + Enter and Shift + Backspace work for the VC only. I've tried CtrL + Shift + Enter and Ctrl + Shift + Backspace also Ctrl + Q and Ctrl + Shift + Q also Alt + Q and Ctrl + Alt + Q with no success. This is very helpful when landing. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply. It is installed in the programs folder. Can I create the new folder C:\FSX and move the FSX program over to that? Also can you help me with the raise the seat question (eye point)?

Thank You

Don

Does anyone know how to turn off those red lettered titles in the upper top left side of the screen that show heading, speed, wind direction and speed etc. I want to do a screen shot an don't want those to show.

Thanks

Don

Thanks all. I'll download them just to be sure. I'm returning to FSX since I got a new computer. It's amazing how much I have forgotten. Like how do I raise or lower the view point (raise, lower seat). The help section says shift + enter for up and shift +backspace for down, but they don't work.

Thanks

Thanks for responding. I don't have Acceleration and I do have the deluxe version. I wonder if I try and install them and already have them maybe the installer will tell me.

Thanks

I am reinstalling FSX on to a faster Computer. I remember there were 2 patches (SP1 & SP2). Do I need to install them both? Also will I need to install the FSUIPC module? Thanks for any help.

Don

The memory you are referring to make dual channel, I take it is the 16GB DDR4 ram?

Also I didn't realize the SSD could be designated to a particular program. It that done through the windows software?

Thanks

I am considering a new computer to run MSFS 2020. Here's listing of the features of one I'm looking at.

Windows 10 Home 64

16 GB DDR4 2666MHz

512 GB PCIe SSD

NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 1660 6GB

I would like to know if anyone feels this is adequate to to the job or should I invest in something better.

Thanks to you all.

Don

I am thinking about buying this computer to run FS2020.

Lenovo T540 Gaming Desktop PC, Intel® Core™ i7, 16GB Memory, 512GB Solid State Drive, Windows® 10 Home; nVidia GeForce™ GTX 1660 gaming-grade graphics card.

Does anyone see any problems with it? Thanks in advance.
