I upgraded to WIN7, repartitioned my hard drives (C: Primary 150GB, D: FSX 300GB). My question is: should I install the extra things like Squawkbox, Delta ACARS, ActiveX Weather, FS Flightkeeper, etc on the FSX dedicated drive or keep them on the Primary drive?

I have them on C, with FS on D. However, since you're using the same physical drive there's no performance boost to doing so.

Cheers!

They are actually on seperate physical drives - drive 1 is split into 2 partitions (150 each, c:/primary and f:/data) and drive 2 the dedicated fsx drive (d:/fsx), is 300gb. should have mentioned that.....
