I have run out of hard drives but I don't think it would perform as good on the old Win 28 those are just a basic test to see what the difference in the frame rate is.
It is a pity that the AI aircraft and most add-on aircraft are cr@p with the DX10 as FSX run much faster with it enabled.

Good over all test, a well renown screenshot artist mentioned on his latest system FS9 would not operate , this seems to prove that it still works , most obvious new pc may be having problems

hmmm i dont have a personal copy of FSX (i keep borrowing my rellies) but i have an fs2004, fs2002, Combat sim 3. lol ill try them on all he O/S including 98
