April 10, 200521 yr HiSearch wideview forum for the key word Parheliahttp://www.flightsim.no/cockpit/forum/view...0911cb3aa9e9b2dand you will find a recommended settings for your cardI use this one and dont see any serious probs exept performance with could be better but still not badRagards
April 11, 200521 yr When the parhelia locks up in FS, you should find the fs9.cfg file in your documents and settings/your name/application data/..... and delete it (or just rename it) start up FS9 normally and set the desired resolution again (typically 3072x768)I had this problem also with the apptimizer. And I use the latest driver. But the fs9.cfg removal solved my problem.Good luck Peter
