Windows 7 - Flight Simulator X And video!

Post by matteorox »

Hello guys,
scusme for my english but i'am italian! :-)
I have host: Mac Os Lion and Windows 7 guest.
I tried to start Microsoft Flight Simulator X but there is a window that says: "flight simulator not work with the graphic card"!
why do you think?
VirtualBox has allocated only 128 of the 256 mb video but this is the best that I could put
Graphic card: ati radeon hd 4670
thanks a lot!

3d in a VM is experimental and not comparable to native access.

Your fruit dealer has a tool named "bootcamp". Use this to install Windows native. Then the game will work.

And i dont think you are a good pilot if you are working with MacOS while flying :)
