Gents, I would like to use my laptop (via wireless connection) to act as a GPS while flying in FSX (in other words, I'm using my main PC for FSX and want to run the GPS outside via my laptop).
I heard or read that this was possible. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

You need Wide FS from Pete Dowson or something similar if you want it to connect to FS.

Are you talking about using two different pcs or two different monitors?

He means 2 computers. He has 3 monitors on TripleHead2Go but wants to have the GPS on his laptop

AH! I was confused. Anyway, is it possible to run the same FS for a flight with two "coordinated" pcs? I guess it's a fsx thing.
