I drifted away from CFS a couple of years ago - had issues with drivers, crashes,etc and have spent most of the time on FSX enjoying the scenery.

However the old warlike instincts have re-emerged and I want to get into battle again.

I have CFS3 and want to install it on a new disk with Windows 7 - can't decide on 32 or 64 bit.

I have the following add-ons -

MAW - one of the early downloads on a disk
ETO - ditto, on a disk kindly provided by Beau Brummie.

Just Flight Battle of Britain
GMX Firepower
GMX D-Day

Obviously the first two I want - should the others just be binned ? I do remember compatibility issues resulting in monster crashes and BSOD.

Any other hints ?

Same here: No probs so far with Win 7 x64...

I don't have Just Flight's BoB but I do have the two GMX discs. But with ETO, I don't need those. Besides, I find the models somewhat outdated...
