I use the Phoenix 4 on windows 7 and 8 with no problems. My only problem is I am a pro with the sim. and a total crasher in real flight. I have not figured out how to make the sim real enough so it can teach me to fly.
Have you tried to adjust the time factor to make it react quicker?
I did this on Realflight and it felt more realistic.
