Good day,
After thinking about this for several days, I remembered that a person can use two Operating Systems in the same computer by assigning each to a separate disk partition. This can be very useful when you come across programs that do not run in 64-bit.
As of this topic, the RAM issue is the only potentially major effect on IL-2 across Operating Systems. However, this also depends on the knowledge and skill of the user. Any OS from XP to Win7 can run IL-2, of course, and just fine. So, what we do with what we have is 99% of the challenge, no fault to any OS. This is why we need websites such as AAA to become better informed.
The dedicated RAM of a graphics card [ assigned to that graphic chip(s) ] is far more crucial to simulations like IL-2 than system RAM. The 1 GB of dedicated RAM (DDR) will be satisfactory, but with all the modding stuff now 2GB or more is ideal.
