Thanks for replies folks -- My laptop runs the ATI 9600 and had 64mb memory as standard but have upgraded to allow the video memory expand to 128mb and still kepp the 512mb to run Windows XP at a decent pace....Runs FS2002/4 very well and seen benefits with Medal of Honour and alike also !
Impressed with it so far ! Not seen much excess Battery drain - YET !
Space is a factor for me so need a laptop rather than a desktop !
