May 23, 200620 yr Does anyone know if or when there will be a monthly video driver update for the ATI cards? The month of May is almost over and the last update was the 6.4s. The last Omega updates were 6.3s.Terry

May 25, 200620 yr Author I will wait till the Non-CCC version comes out. I cannot stand the MS CCC and neither can my computer. Intel P4 2,8 with 1 gig or 3200 and ATI 9800 Pro. I have been using the Omega with the older style CP interface.Terry
May 29, 200620 yr I updated to the 6.5 ATI drivers, but had to roll back to 6.4. The 6.5's made my 2d panels blurry and I got a lot of strange red flashing in front of the aircraft I was flying. I cleaned the old drivers off using drivercleaner pro, per the instructions, but it didn't seem to take. So I just rolled back to 6.4 since I never had any issues with those. And before anyone asks, yes I made sure there were no duplicate video card entries in the fs9.cfg.
May 30, 200620 yr Just went through the update process from 6.1 to 6.5 for my X800XT AIW and have to say this has been the WORST experience I have ever had in updating drivers. To cut a long story short, 6.5 porked my TV card drivers and even when system restoring it took nearly 8 hrs of reloading various different AIW drivers, mouse drivers (FS FPS would drop to 2 at Seattle when the mouse hovered over FS with any AA enabled), dot net drivers, and just about any other driver that seemingly had nothing to do with lockups, BSODs and crapo performance. Finally got it all working again with the 6.1 drivers about an hour ago, after being on the verge of reinstalling windows from scratch. I thought NVidia drivers were crapola, with it taking nearly a year before a tooltips problems with FS was finally fixed, but ATI takes the cake ATM for the most difficult to recover from porked drivers!Gary 9800X3D | 4090 | 64GB | 2+1TB NVME | 2TB SSD | 2TB HDD | 85/50/43” TVs | Quest 3 | DOF H3 Motion Rig | Buttkicker | T.16000M Flight Kit MSFS @ 4K Ultra DLSS Performance FG 80 FPS | VR VDXR Godlike 80Hz SSW | MSFS VR DLSS Quality, Ultra Preset - Windows 11 Acer Nitro 5 | i5-11400H | RTX 3060 6 GB | 32GB DDR4 | 15.6" FHD IPS 144Hz | 2 x 512 GB SSD | Windows 11
June 2, 200620 yr well...same thing here, very bad experience with the 6.5. (strange artefacts and flashes)I'm happy (sorry....) I'm not the only one with this problem because my card is new and i was wondering if it has a glitch.Rolling back to 6.4 immediately!!David - PC Hardware: AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D // Asus ROG Crosshair X870E HERO // 2x32Gb Corsair Dominator Titanium DDR5 6000MT/s CL30 // ASUS ROG Strix GeForce RTX 4090 OC Edition // 4Tb Corsair NVMe M.2 MP600 // Corsair 1600W PSU Samsung Odyssey Arc 55" curved 165 Hz monitor. - Simulator Hardware: VIRPIL Constellation Alpha Prime + VIRPIL VPC Universal Control Panel - #3 + MOZA AY210 Force Feedback Yoke + WINWING URSA MINOR 32 Throttle & PAC Metal + WINWING SKYWALKER Metal Rudder Pedals + WINWING Airbus FCU & EFIS + WINWING Boeing 3N PAP + WINWING MCDU-32 + WINWING PFP-4 + WINWING PFP 3-N + WINWING PFP-7.
