So your CPU should be able to handle XP. At this point it would come down to your graphics processor (card) as Alec mentioned.

I’m not entirely sure but I think it has the Iris Plus G7 integrated card @KGJT-9149 @anon21556663

I have no idea if that’s good tho

I’d say you’ve got a 50/50 shot at it being ok, as long as you don’t get to crazy with installing shaders and scenery packs. If you get XP, run the graphics settings on the lower end.

Ok thank you. If I get Microsft Flight Sim X will it be smoother and can I run it on higher settings?

what do u think the best sim would be for my laptop

Possibly, but I still wouldn’t run it very high. That graphics processor is better for less demanding programs, so I still wouldn’t go too high.

Idk how it works on an integrated processor. I know with my PC, it’s incredibly simple as it’s a separate graphics card.

I’d say yes. X-Plane would run rougher on higher graphics compared to FSX.

Thanks, that’s what I thought. It’s a lot cheaper and I do like the ATC in the Steam Editoon.

I have another really dubm question. So basically Turbo Boost is enabled, and I think my GHz can go upto 3.9.

I saw in this video that chnaging the amount of processors in msconfig settings can increase performance. It is defaulted to 1 but I can change it upto 8. Does this make a difference at all?
