I would like to run MS Flightsim 2004 in Bootcamp with MS Windows XP on a Macbook with 2.2 GHz processor and 4GB of RAM. Any issues? Does not need to be graphics intensive as I mostly need the instrument display.

Thanks!
 
MSFS 2004 is such an old game that it should be able to run it fine, especially with low settings because you only want the instruments. You will have no problems.
 
Yeah, should be just fine. I run MSFS X in Boot Camp on my MBP (the old Core Duo one, so not too far off from your more modern MB) and it does pretty well. Certainly enough for instrument-focused playing.

Do give x-plane a look, though. It's an outstanding simulator (there's even a version that has FAA approval for ATP training) and saves you the indignity of dual booting into Windows.
