Good day Gang,I have just loaded a couple of games on to my new system, FS2002 being one of them. On my old system, when I set my hardware settings to 1600 x 1280 x 32 resolution then went to full screen mode, and then "entered the cockpit", the panel simply resized to the correct screen width and all was visible that was supposed to be visible. I was using a NVidia Ti4400. Now, on the new system, I'm not getting the resizing. I run my desktop at 1152 x 868, but have set the resolution in FS (and in Madden 2004) to 1600... and when I go to full screen mode, the panel is cut off in almost every direction. I do have the "resize" feature turned on in FS. I thought this was a problem with Madden as I tried it first, but it seems to be carrying over into FS as well, so that's why I'm now thinking video card. My new video card is the ATI Radeon 9800 256 made by Gigabyte. Can anyone tell me what switch I have to throw to get this to read correctly?Many thanks for the help.Glenn

OK, problem solved. In case it helps anyone else, ATI have separated the monitor resolution from the video card resolution, so each can be set independently. I'm not sure of the application to this, but there must be a good reason for it, so on that basis alone I'm impressed. Anyway, you can set the max monitor resolutions at the ATI Control Panel -- Advanced -- Displays -- Monitor and DEselect the "Use DDC Information" checkbox, select the Maximum Resolution that your monitor will manage (don't go beyond what your monitor is capable of here, as you can get to some really, really tiny resolutions!), and select the Max Refresh rate (again be SURE not to go above what your monitor will manage AT THAT RESOLUTION!), and it might be a "safe" idea to make sure the "Direct X Refresh Override is disabled in case you set up something like a 400 Hz refresh rate in your favourite game. You'll know if you've done this and the disable wasn't selected because your monitor will probably vapourize in front of your face as it tries to keep up :-hah. Then you can select your desktop/default resolution to whatever you want (i.e. 1024 x whatever) and still see all of your instrument panel in FS8/9/whatever in 2D mode at 1600 resolution.Hope that helps someone.Glenn
