Checking computer for MS Flight Simulator 2020

n97883 · Dec 21, 2020

I have a Dell AIO 7440 with I7-6700@3.40GHZ, 16.0 GB RAM, 64-bit, intel 530 with 8236 MB total available graphics memory but it shows 128 MB. I tried several times to get that to 512 to no avail using BIOS and registry options.

I'm not a computer guy. I went on to one of the websites that checks your computer and it said I had everything I needed (pixel and vertex shader) except a dedicated video ram. It requires 2048 MB and I have 128.

I was trying to figure out if it's worth buying or not. I'd like to get it, it doesn't have to be perfect but I don't want it to be bad.

Intel graphics cards arent gpus you need an actual gpu

Your graphics memory is being shared with your sister memory more than likely, you need to buy a dedicated graphics card. It looks like your computer is a Mac style where everything is encased in the monitor, I’m sorry to tell you but you’re gonna have
to buy a new computer. This computer and neither has the ability to add a dedicated graphics card, nor the power supply to support it

Yes, you can install Flight Simulator 2020 on more than one computer.

Hello, Francisco. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas, and I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

How is your setup to install MS Flight Simulator? I mean, if you own a flight institution (or aeronautical engineering institution) with computers, you can install and license MS Flight Simulator on these computers and let the students use these computers on your education institution.

Now if you want to license MS Flight Simulator to be used on your students home computer (which will change like every year or so), it'll be a different situation.

I think the best option for you is to contact Microsoft about Flight Simulator by submitting a support ticket here (it's the official MS Flight Simulator Support channel):
