I am about to upgrade my system; actualy I am going for a high powered laptop to replace both my desktop and my existing sorry excuse for a laptop. Whatever I get (either an HP Envy 17 or Dell Alienware M17x) will have Windows 7 64 bit installed on it. I am wondering what kind of issues FSX has with Windows 7...?

The only 'issue' perhaps is that when adding scenery the scenery library add function doesn't work properly, but there are workarounds which I'm sure someone will post.

Other than that the sim runs fine, you don't need to run in compatibility mode or anything like that, it just works.

No problems with mine, Win 7 is great.

Other than the adding scenery issue already mentioned, which does indeed have a simple work around....no issues.

Runs better.
