Just upgraded my Radeon 9800 Drivers from the ATI site.. and I now get the following:Flight simulator is not working with your video card.Verify that you have the latest drivers installed for your video card.Flight Simulator will now exit. --------- | OK | ---------I think its hardly OK.... anyone got any ideas??

Hi Chris,How did you upgrade? What drivers version?Did you remove the old drivers? Are you using the control panel. Did you use a driver cleaner to remove all old driver droppings?Bob..

It should be working. I'm on a 9800 pro, with the latestdrivers, and mine works. Sounds like you didn't flushthe old, before you installed the new. Try un installing the drivers, reboot to VGA driver, and try a fresh install.Using a driver cleaner would make sure nothing is left behind to mess things up. On my box, FSX would give that error on my old driver. I had to install the new driver toget FSX to run. But....The new "unified" ATI capture driver is a non funny joke. Wouldn't let me record TV.. I ended up having to install *twin* XP systems on two hard drives.. One for TV/everyday use, and another for FSX. What was ATI thinking with this new capture driver? It makes the 9800 proAIW card useless.Oh well... I worked around it as usual. It's a pain having to reboot for the sim, or visa versa.. I have to pick whichdrive I want in the bios setup. But at least I can record TVagain, and still use FSX..MK

I got it working.. I had removed them properly the first time, guess not everything was out of the system... works fine now.. also overclocked the card now and getting a little bit better performance... I think with another 1GB of RAM I may be able to have fly FSX.. the only other upgrade i'm considering is the new X1950AGP card.. New Marshall amp and cab comes before new computer this time :)

New Marshall amp and cab comes>before new computer this time :)Dunno if a new vid card alone if enough.. FSX seems to be pretty CPU hungry. I'd probably plan for a total upgrade if you want it to run good, and I'd probably let the hardwaresmoke clear for a while. I plan to upgrade myself, but I'm not in a big hurry. The longer I wait, the more speed I will get for my money. New Marshall amp? I think I heard they had a new line coming out. Haven't heard much as far as tone reports though..I like the old stuff myself. I have a "plexi clone" that is a traynor YBA-1A bassmaster mk2. My other "clean" channel is anold fender super reverb. MK
