Default Re: Realflight G3.5 or FS one?

I just bought a new Toshiba with two 2 gig processors, 4 gig of ram, and a nvidia 7900 video card. I had a 3 year old toshiba that ran 3.5 with no problem. Well, when I got the new computer, g3.5 "strobed" every 4 seconds, I couldn't believe it. So I bought g4 hoping it would work better on vista ultimate, to no avail. I was devastated. I was going into the hospital for a two level lower back fusion, and needed a sim!! Neither tech supports were able to help, realflight nor toshiba. I ended up fixing to problem by removing a bunch of the windows services that are pre-installed, and are hardle ever used. I found that now I am kicking myself for buying g4. I am an IMAC and freestyle flyer. The improvements to G4 seem to me to be mostly the water stuff, which I will never use. The one thing I did like, but is not that useful, is being able to import multiple planes at once. But, you will only use that once, and if you have any errors, it stops and doesn't try the rest.
