Radeon 9600 minimum, which is about what you have. 2 GHZ Pentium or AMD Athlon. And 1 Gig ram MINIMUM. Plus about 10 gigs HD space.

if your computer meets the reqirements wolfala laid out.

Video cards aren't magic they need a machine to back them up.

It ran fine on XP 2000+, 768 Mb SDRAM, Ti 4200. Your machine will run it just fine if set up correctly. GET FS2K4!

I run it fine with a 64mb video card and 256mb of ram.

From the back of the box-

windows 200/XP-128mb ram
windows 98/ME-64mb ram
450MHz processor
1.8 GB hard drive space
8MB/3D video card
DirectX 9.0 or later

I think the only difference is that "A Century of Flight" came in a metal box and FS2004 is like $20 cheaper....

I believe (I'm sure I'll be corrected) that FS2002 Professional Edition has more commercial aircraft (what I'm basically saying is that I don't know).

Get FS2004. It's pretty cheap now at Wal-Mart. Hands down the most realistic flight sim I've ever used.

Grab the 2004. There are so many planes available for download that you won't have time to fly it all.

I particularly like the realtime weather in 2004, and the system seems more stable (at least for me) then 2000 and 2002 were.

Nah I don't have any vocal talent whatsoever and without a drummer or second guitarist I'm lost on the geetar too.

I peaked musically when I played trumpet in high school

It's Dan Finnerty (of the Dan Band) singing Carolina Skies.
