Default Microsoft CFS 3 - need HELP!

Hi Folks,

I have Real Flight G2 and the Microsoft Combat Flight Sim. 1 & 2. All three work flawlessly! I just recently purchased the Microsoft Flight Sim. 3 and am having video problems so I need a little advice please from those who can offer.

I can fly the "Quick Combat" mode with very little video hesitation or freeze-up. On certain missions the video totally freezes up. I have done every thing suggested to improve this, all the lasted download upgrades (including the BIOS) and shut down all programs to free up the RAM (93% free). If I turn the video acceleration rate right down, it improves some what, but not much.

My system is as follows:

Dell Dimension 8100 series
Pentium 4 1300mhz processor
128 mb rd-Ram
20 GB ultra ata 7200rpm hard drive (10 gb free)
Nvidia GeForce 2 MX400 (32mb) video card
Creative sound 64v pci sound card
Operating system: Windows 98 SE
ViewSonic A70 monitor.

I have more than double the operating requirements Microsoft asks for, Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. Every one have a Merry Christmas.
