You don't need any software. What video card you got? I have a Nvidia
Ti4200 and I have an option when you right click the desktop properties, go
to the video card tab, etc, so that I can just drag windows to the other
monitor or I can combine the monitors and have one giant one. So I would
pick the first option and just drag the windows in FS to the other monitor.
Hook up both monitors then boot your computer and do the above.

I am getting random crashes with this game. I play N2003, Call of Duty, and BF1942. I don't have any problems with these games. After flying for 15-30 mins or so the Flight sim game locks up. I have the graphics pretty much maxed out. I don't think it is a heat issue, I just bought a new case, fans and power supply about a month ago. I'm starting to think it may be a driver issue. The crashing is very similar to my Desert combat crashing before I switched drivers. After that the crashing stopped. I am currently using the 45.23 drivers. The have historically given me the best performance and stability. I don't use the newest drivers due to losing about 10 fps with NASCAR 2003. Anyone else having any problems with the 45.23's and this game? Thanks for reading, computer specs as follows: AMD 2400+ 40 and 80 gb hd's 512 mb pc2100 MSI NForce 1 motherboard with onboard sound EVGA 5950 Ultra Chenming aluminum case with 2x80mm blowing in, 2x80mm fans blowing out, and a PCI fan blowing out next to my video card Antec 550w ps All bios, and drivers current (with the exception of the video card, 45.23)

Happy New Year! MS Flight Sim 2004 is my first experience with a simulator. I purchased the CH USB Yoke and am very pleased with the performance. I'd like to purchase a joystick for the helicopters but I have no idea which models to consider. So I guess my question to the group is... If money were not an issue (under $300), and you wanted the best experience flying helicopter in a non-combat simulator, which joystick would you choose? Thank you all.

Hello, Microsoft says the System Requirements for Flight Simulator 2004: A Century of Flight are; * PC with 450 MHz equivalent or higher processor * 128 MB of system RAM for 2000/XP, 64 MB RAM for 98/Me * 8 MB video card required But, realistically, what type of PC do I need to play the game with all the bells and whistles turned on? Thank you for your time.
