AggressorBLUE Member Registered: 12/15/09 Posts: 2087 Loc: Jerz	Ok, so I just ordered a new SSD on Amazon, and I'm going to be re-installing Windows 7, which means my DCS titles (Mustang, A-10C, and BS2) as well. Note that BS2 is the upgrade (note standalone) license. That said, my primary question is what files should I save now, so as to have controls and configurations saved (meaning my new install will have all the content of my old one)? _________________________ My Rig:AMD Phenom X4 955 Black Edition OCed@4.0 GHz/GIGABYTE GA-890FXA-UD5 AM3 AMD 890FX Mobo\ MSi AMD 6950 2GB \ 8 Gigs of G.skills Ram\Storage: OCZ SSD 240GB/ Bunch of HDDs\All held together by: Coolermaster HAF 932 case Other Assets Deployed: HOTAS: Logitech G940 CH FighterStick/Pro-Throttle/Throttle Quad/Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals TrackIR Simpit: ETA Q2 2013 Wheel: ETA Q4 2013

cichlidfan Junior Member Registered: 03/02/11 Posts: 95 Loc: Woodbridge, VA, USA	I have been running DCS products on an SSD for nearly a year now. In fact, it is now a different SSD and, technically, a different DCS (now world with all of the modules) and I have no issues.
