Hello All,I just updated my BIOS. Everything is fine with one exception: the sky in FS9 flashes red. I've re-insatalled the video drivers (lastest nVidia drivers)that worked before. The only add-ons that might be of issue are UTUSA or BEV textures. As I said, all was well before. All other apps run fine. Any suggestions? Could I be missing something in the BIOS? I am running the nvVidia global settings. No caching of anykind (video wise) in BIOS. Will reset if possible when this gets taken care of. Once again, please help!DandogWhite Box Machine (Home built originally in 2000, and upgraded many times.Amptron MoboAMD 2400+ CPunVidia 6200 (AGP) and nVidia FX5200 (PCI) graphics cardsDown to 512 megs of RAM.

You might check that the AGP aperture is set where you had it before.Some mobos need to have the CMOS reset after a BIOS change.Two video cards and only 512MB of RAM doesn't look like a recipe for success to me.RegardsBob ScottATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VSantiago de Chile

Thank you for the reply. I've been over the BIOS backwards and forwards and consulted everything about BIOS settings I could Google. No help. BIOS says it is 4X capable and ready. I understand that the driver sets agp transfer rate. The card is running at 2X per Riva Tuner. Added another stick o' RAM, no help. Have the nVidia 97.31 drivers. No help. Updated SIS Accelerated AGP Ports driver, no help. I ran DXDIAG and it came up with no problems. Check the screen shot, you'll see a problem. And that's in Global Settings. Get's worse in advanced settings. Is there an App that I can run to see if the graphics card is FUBAR'ed? (Third Party, as DXDIAG says all is good). Any additional input would be helpfull. Thanks again.Dandog
