FS9 help needed.after computer crash - dowop - 08-19-2008
Hey All! I recently had a major hard drive crash...dead..kaput!!
Fortunately, I had most all backed up (1100 planes, etc...) Well, got me a new HD and have to start rebuilding again...most all is back up, but, when I go to the display page on the settings there are no screen resolutions available. It does not reconise by vid card (nvidia 6600gt) and full screen is not available!
Am I wearing my glasses on my forehead? Am I missing something simple? I have installed a few different sets of drivers to no avail...dang it!
Any ideas? Help is appreciated.
Thanks all, Don "dowop" Loy

have you tried to delete your FS9.cfg and then uninstalled every video cards driver, reboot your computer and make a clean install of your video driver and then start FS9?
I hope you now where to find your FS9.cfg file, because I am running on a German XP Version.
That's all I can offer you for the moment
