FS has been stopping and going a lot lately, and I was wondering what settings would be best for my computer.

Specs:
Compaq Presario SR1800NX
3.06GHz Intel Celeron D Processor
512MB RAM
100GB Hard drive
ATI Radeon Xpress 200 Graphics Card

I fly into Vegas and have the Simflyers scenery. This is where I get the most problems. Any help is needed.

Thanks.

P.S. This is my 700th post.

With an integrated card you are always going to have problems at graphic intensive areas.

You might have a AGP slot on that mobo, take a look and if you do, disable the integrated one and replace it with a good AGP card.

You also could use at least another 512mb ram.
If you are going to run Vista and FSX you will need at least 2 gigs ram.
You have a good CPU (Celeron is a slow chip) so I would just upgrade that computer.

This computer gets the job done with FS. I am going to upgrade it by adding a 1GB RAM. I am also planning on upgrading the graphics, once I get enough money.

Thanks for the opinion RadarMan.
