XP SP 2 and Flight Sim 2004 vs Bootcamp = no audio

Hi I've got a 27" imac and have installed XP SP2. I'm running OS 10.6.2 and have installed Microsoft Flight Sim 2004. I can't get any audio when running the flight sim. Have managed to get basic sounds in windows by changing one setting which was an improvement but thats it.
I'm also wondering what screen res would be the best choice in Microsoft Flight sim. They give you about 1 million options. What is best? Can anyone help?

Well, I'm making progress - of a sort.
The Sharp connects via AV (Video + 1 audio channel) to the Sony Z1P. Fine
The Z1P "captures" the Sharp's footage to tape (it seems the Sony won't "pass-thru" directly - oh, well...). Video AND audio are faithfully recorded, as they play back rather well on the Z1P's LCD screen.
Now, the Z1P uses what appears to be a proprietary Sony "iLink" cable - it looks like a 4-pin to 4-pin IEEE1394 cable - and my computer's firewire input socket is a 6-pin. Tried a 4-pin to 6-pin cable - didn't work. Couldn't identify the camera. There must be something about the Sony iLink cable, huh?
So, I have an older laptop with a 4-pin socket, and grab the footage that way. Fine, but the laptop can't keep up and drops frames all over the place. At least I 've got both video and audio, now.
I was capturing using WMM at DV-AVI running at 25MB/sec and that's obviously too much for this little laptop. WMM has a lot of slow bandwidth options, ranging from 28.8KB/sec to 768KB/sec, then DV-AVI at 25MB/sec - nothing in between.
I think I'm going to buy a firewire adapter with a 4-pin socket.

  • MSI ti4800se 8xagp widows xp & Flight Sim 2004 HELP!

    Paul,
    I have run FS2k4 with the 45.23 DetonatorFX Drivers from the nVidia Website on a GeForce4 Ti4800. Everything worked great as long as you do NOT set Anisotropic Filtering to 8X.

  • Flight Sim keyboard shortcuts

    Has anyone got the keyboard shortcuts / commands for Flight Sim on an iMac running Windows?  As in Bootcamp Window.
    I looked an someone spoke aobut comcast, but that's not the case here.
    It used to be F1-F4 did engine speeds, and F5-F8 did flaps, but doesn't work with the newer iMac aluminum keyboard.  (which btw I don't like, too flat and I get zapped touching it after walking across the room.)
    Cheers

    perhaps this thread or others in the "more like this" section next to it might help : https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3167143?start=0&tstart=0.  If you have already read them, I'm sorry, I am not a mindreader, which is also why I did not know that you already searched the Flight Simulator 9 or FX forums.

  • Are the iMacs able to handle Flight Sims?

    My iMac is an early intel version with a 2.16 GHz cpu and 2.0 GB ram with the nVidia 7600 GT video card. Can someone please tell me if the flight sim 'X-Plane' would work with this platform? I have not picked up any joysticks or control wheels as I wasn't sure whether or not the computer was flight sim capable or not.
    My old dell pc was to some degree, but it was too old to modify enough to make flight sim games worthwhile. Any help would be appreciated.

    Off the top of my head I would expect it to work just fine. You can download the demo of version 8 and see how it goes. You can drive with the mouse and keyboard in the demo mode for about 10 minutes. It's a big download, but worth the wait.
    You've probably already discovered x-plane.org? It's a web site for rabid x-plane fans. I'd post your question there and I'm suspecting you'll get a lot of responses. They are pretty helpful in my experience.
    FYI - I'm running x-plane version 8 on my iMac without a hitch. There is actually one small hitch in the video drivers for my Mac (uses a ATI card) that does not display runway lights properly, but I think that should not be an issue for you. (The X-plane author claims it is an Apple/ATI deficiency in the video drivers for the new iMac. Version 9 works around the problem I am told).

  • T61P won't read flight sim X

    As the subject line says, my DVD-RW drive doesn't recognize MS Flight Sim X when the disc is put in the drive. It spins up but shortly after spins back down. When that disc is in, the computer basically locks up, although the mouse cursor still moves, but the drive will not eject the disc and the only thing I can do with the computer is to hold down the power button and shut it down. The only way I can try and view the volume in the DVD drive is to restart with the flight sim disc already in, but when windows explorer opens up, it freezes and doesn't show anything in the drive. I know the discs are good, as they load with no problem in my wife's HP laptop with Vista and my desktop with XP. My T61p has Win XP and has no problem recognizing any other CD or DVD that I put in the drive. Anybody have any thoughts?

    What is the exact wording of the error message you receive?
    Has the iPhone been jailbroken or modified to work with other
    than the original wireless provider?
    Have you installed one of the iOS 7 beta versions on that iPhone?

  • Flight Sim X

    I m trying to load Flight Sim X in my Touch Smart 300 / 64bit / windows 7, but my DVD reader cannot read it!!!!
    Does someone has the same problem? When I go to my computer, DVD drive shows nothing in it, can't read

    Brunno, welcome to the forum.
    It sounds like you may have a bad FltSim X disc.  I suggest trying the disc in a friends computer to see if it works.

    Dear sir
    I bought my iPhone 4 from Apple store in Charlotte N/C about 2years ago without contract.
    Now I tried to upgrade it to iOS 7.0.4.but after that my phone not work with last sim card.
    And invalid sim appeared.so I bought it without contract but it seems to be lock in my country
    Please tell me whats the matter?
    My phone serial no  86034HTCA4T
    Modem firmware  04.12.09
    Thanks

    Without contract is not the same as unlocked. The update to iOS 7 relocked
    the iPhone to the wireless carrier to which it was originally locked. You must
    contact that wireless carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    If you used jailbreak or other hack to unlock the iPhone initially, the method
    used may prevent a legitimate unlock from succeeding and may render your
    iPhone unuseable.

    Hi I've just upgraded my MacBook Pro from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion. Now my installed programs:- Quarkxpress 6.5 - Adobe creative suite CS2 - Adobe Acrobat 7.0 professional and Microsoft Office 2004 will not open - I get a banner saying not supported by power mac. Can anyone please help me I really need these programs for my work. Thank you!

    hi tuggerose
    i think it is bad new for you. if it's any consilation i went through the same thing when i loaded mountain lion when it first came out. i think the problem is that mountain lion is a pure 64bit operating system and the software you have is 32bit. earlier os's were able to emulate 32bit but the new system does not. the answer is new software. i did it and it cost me a load of money and much angst so your not alone.

  • I no longer have a service provider and my SIM is locked. How do I obtain my PUK?

    I no longer have a service provider and my SIM is locked. How do I obtain my PUK?

    if you don't have a carrier then the sim card and punk code is irrelevant and you will not be able to use it
    the only purpose of the sim card is to tie the phone to the carrier, and the puk code is a security code for the sim card
    trow away the sim card and when you get a new carrier you will be given a new sim card by that carrier

  • What is the difference between mySAP2004 and SAP ERP 2004?

    Hi,
      Can anybody tell me what is the difference between mySAP2004 and SAP ERP 2004?
    If someone has the document, then please mail me at [email protected]
    With Regards

    Hi Tiffny,
    actually I don't see a difference as "mySAP2004" is not an official name for anything
    There is "mySAP ERP 2004" which is the marketing name for a bunch of functionality provided by several different bits of software components.

  • If you enter your password on the ipad too many times and your sim card locks, is there a way of recovery without replacing the sim card?

    If you enter your password on the ipad too many times and your sim card locks, is there a way of recovery without replacing the sim card?

    That doesn't lock the SIM card, it just locks you out of the device. 
    If you forgot (or don't know) your passcode, restore the device from backup on the last computer it was synced with when the passcode was turned on... this will remove the passcode. If you do not have access to the last computer it was synced with, you will have to force it into recovery mode & restore as a new device.
