When I am flying The aircraft keeps on jumping from side to side, Is it a P.C. problem or F.S.X.

Its so annoying to get lined up with the runway for landing and it jump's to the right or left and hits a tree.

Im running Windows xp home and F.S.X. Delux with acceleration.

It jumps or drifts??
It may be the way you have the sensitivity settings on your joystick.
The settings are more severe and realistic on missions than in real flying (Sim flying).
Try it, see and let us know.

It may not be the joystick, are you getting high FPS...20 or better.
If your machine or card isn't up to running it properly it can act like a slide show.

Hiya, Ive done a Repair on FSX and on the Acceleration and it has sorted it out thank you.

Sorry to have taken up a lot of your time, I'm a pensioner and not very good on my legs so I can-not get out, To fly about the World from my wheelchair is Wonderful.

Once again thanks Mate,

Have a Wonderful Christmas Mike.
