So if you are running a modern OS (such as any more recent version of Windows, Mac OS or Linux) and running FlightGear still affects overall system stability in one way or another, something is likely very wrong with your hardware or software setup. Things specifically to look out for include:


* insufficient free system resources (memory, CPU power) (see [[Hardware Recommendations]])
* insufficient free system resources (memory, CPU or GPU power) (see [[Hardware Recommendations]])
* OS/driver issues
* OS/driver issues (graphics/sound)
* insufficient CPU/GPU (hard disk, memory) cooling
* insufficient CPU/GPU (hard disk, memory) cooling
* faulty RAM, CPU or mainboard
* faulty RAM, CPU or mainboard
* computer viruses
