Best Set up for Microsoft Flight Simulator 1998

[Thunder_Ruler0]

I just bought a new pentium 3 computer and was wanting to know what are the best specs to run Microsoft Flight Simulator 1998.

I have Flight Unlimited III (1999) running on windows 10, which is nice but the top resolution is 768p 4:3 which makes my PC have a heart attack whenever I use it.

If you want a real plane simulator, get X-Plane.

Pentium 3 should in theory run Windows 7, so get that.

Windows 7 is good and can run many old applications. Also get a good PCI GPU such as the GT 610 and you are rockin'.

You gave the troll away by showing a windows 10 window

gt610 is pcie only. i got one in my windows 10 machine, and it runs fine.

 

 

op: try compatibility mode.

It has PCI versions but they are rare.

 

Actually there is a good PCI graphics card. It's an Nvidia Quadro NVS 280. Although it has only 64MB of frame buffer it is more than enough for FS98.
