PMDG 737 The Next Generation

[Dave. S]

Am thinking of purchasing this product, my o/s is vista & i wondered if anyone knows of any compatibility problems, i,ve been led to believe this aircraft was released for xp only. Do any of you run it ok on vista?
One more thing lol, i notice on posted screenshots of flights how clear & detailed some of the scenery & airports are, are these add-ons or do you just have very powerful pc,s ?

Dave:

Dave Vega maybe able to answer your question about Vista. I know he was using Vista on his laptop while in Baghdad.

As for screenshots that I have posted in the forum, or ones from the various flyins, I don't do any special manipulation of the image files other than resizing and reducing their file size. I have a 3Ghz machine, 1.5gb Ram and a ATI x800 256mb PCI video card. I run at a very high level of scenery settings. I have my framerates locked at 24fps.

Yes, I can run the PMDG 737NG on Windows Vista without any problems. This on FS9. The problems are when one tries to port it to FSX. It doesn't run under FSX.

Thanx Marty,
Turned scenery settings up & hey presto, trucks & allsorts appeared lol. Never tried before as i didnt think p.c would cope but works fine as long as i dont run fs in full screen, it,ll do for me

Not crashing is always a good thing. Good to know that it runs well on your Vista setup.
