im sorry, but i dont beleive that reflections are supported with a 9200 card. Youd have trouble getting water effects on high on FS9, so I doubt FSX would have any luck.

reflections work fine with FS9,...can get water effects also,...but not with FSX,....but your probably right,..it just doesnt have enough bollucks to handle FSX demands...
