I have F15 Strike Eagle III and it runs like crap on XP, messed up screens/views, graphics suck, it doesn't recognize my vidcard as it's too new, and the game is too old.

When I finally got it sorta running the graphics sucked, I remembered them being really sweet, and they probably were in their day, but they suck now. Same with TFX Experimental Fighter, excellent graphics in their day, but are really sad now.

Only flight game that still has fairly decent graphics, that I know of, is TAW Total Air War.

Even the last patch for SE III didn't solve my probs, so if you do find this game, I think you'll be disappointed. There are so many games that I've wanted to play again, but once I see the graphics, I laugh at myself, hard to believe that at one time I thought these graphics were awesome.
