I was reading that FSX can be set to run on all 4 cores instead of just the one. Is this true? and if so, How do I do it. I heard that it greatly improved flight sim graphics.

FSX SP1 and above will multi-thread.

Thank you Luke, however, I have FSX Gold edition which I believe has FSX SP1 already on the disc. I will try it. I was just reading some were that FSX uses 1 core and I have a 4 core processor, I read somewhere were you can more than 1 processor to run FSX. Please correct me if I am wrong? I very much appreciate every ones help as I return to flying after many years.

If you have Gold/Acceleration, you have SP2 which will use multiple cores.

 

Cheers!
