It has been awhile since I have participated in the flight sim community. Most of that occurred about a year ago when the tower I currently use lost one of its SLI'd vid cards. I replaced both, but have never gotten the results from FSX I did before the card went. Anyhow, I am building a new tower with super speed capabilities and my query is, how many of you are using Windows 7 or Windows 8 or 8.1 and are able to use the two MS Flight Sims FS9 and FSX? I have heard and read that Windows 8 and above do not like either and that FS9 has problems with Windows 7. Give me all the feedback you can from those of you that are able to use these OSs. Another reason I need to build a new tower with a new OS is that many of my newer graphics programs, i.e. Adobe Lightroom V5 will not install on Vista-64, only on Windows 7 or 8. Many thanks in advance for any input you can give.

Caz, who hopes to be back in virtual aviation before long.
