  14. thanks again erich yes I did get the menu with backslash but nothing happened after (instructor stopped talking ) so thought it was the wrong menu. Yes its a challenge but beats doing the crosswords
  15. Just want to run this past you guys. Currently its a 32 bit but it does say below that its 64 bit compatible. In its current configuration it handles both the A10 and Fsx quite well using a short throw projector. is it worthwhile upgrading to a 64 bit along with a better graphic card?

  16. Thanks for the reply but still totally confused and frustrated I cant move forward.past a silly little key board command. In the landing lesson where he says " lets open the vhf radio menu" where is that in option/controls? There are about 20 items under VHF but none say the above. also L.ALt and Numb keys....is that the left "ALT" key plus the "numb" key? driving me nuts :doh:
  17. newb here folks,stuck near the end of the landing training video. Instructor says I need to "Open the vhf radio menu" L.ALT and NUM+ key I dont have a numb key and cant find "open vhf menu" on the options list can someone tell me where it is in the options so I can assign my own key to it? thanks
  18. Hi team I live in Bangkok Thailand and named myself after a bar around the corner. Love you all long time.
  19. so true! dont test drive a BMN if you plan to buy hyundai :doh: I think the advances made in the projection world have sort of crept up on us all. most good projectors now have small lamp cools of 5 mins or less including mine, also the bulbs are getting cheaper sub $200. and the hours longer with 5-6000hrs more the norm now as you already mentioned there is no 1028 short throw but its only a matter of time and will be a big winner in Sim world
  20. The projector arrived today and here is a quick review. i will try to write without getting excited but to be frank its hard not to be the experience was simply jaw dropping. What i was expecting was a big screen experience with perhaps some detail lacking with instrumentation close up and as i mentioned a few posts back I was happy with that and would use my high res lap top as a second screen. WRONG! The image is cyrstal clear and the 5000:1 contrast gives a ton of light maybe a bit to much for a dark room and handles normal afternoon light at home easy. Everything is razor sharp including the dials and numbers so my second screen for the instruments is not necessary. The picture quality I was not expecting so very pleased about that although I havnt tested it on the A10 but FSX and its array of bright colors is made for this projector. What is freaky is the distance from the screen, using a tape measure 6 feet completely filled the 100" inch screen which was ideal for in your face total immersion. the unit cost $700 inc tripod screen.
  21. Thanks MW thats a good !
  22. The way I will set it up is with high res laptop on a laptop stand perfectly positioned for reading instruments and have the projector running at the same time. rather than have the 2 images the same it would be nice to have just the instruments on the laptop Some pracitical pointers would be appreciated as Im not getting much luck searching
  23. Im a bit new to this so bear with me, how do you get a secondary image from one pc?
  24. I was strolling around today and past a TV place that had some projectors set up. One in particular stood out with the projector ony 6ft away and a stunning clarity so I bought it on a whim . Well actually I have been toying with the idea for 6 months or so. BenQ MX613ST DLP "short throw" Projector..3d ready and 1024 x 728 res. now I really will need a reason to leave the house
  25. Ive noticed some of the set ups look fanatastic with good money being spent yet some of the good ones choose one screen and dont go for the wrap around 3 screen option. Im guessing its not about the money since screens arent that expensive, perhaps its the extra space but it would only be a few feet So why do some prefer 1 screen over 3
