May 19, 200719 yr Hi all,I have a bit of a problem. I'm running FS9(.1) with the no cd patch on aP4, 3GHZ, 2Gigs of RAM and a ATI 1950 512mb DDR2.But that's not it, I'm also running it on dual screens. One 20 inch widescreen, one 17inch normal, both ACER's.Here's the deal : When I alt-enter FS and go to windowed mode, there seems to be no problem at all, but when I use the windows key, or alt-tab, I go out of FS, but in my taskbar there seems to be two FS's running (see screenshot/link). The one that says Microsoft bla bla is FS itself. If I click it, I go back to FS, the one next to it, seems to be 'something'. I just don't know what it is. It runs on my second (17inch) monitor and when I click it, I hear the sound from FS, but nothing pops up, no image, no FS, nothing. Also, when I am back on my desktop, and this 'phenonamon' is going on and I drag something to this second (17inch) screen then I can 'see/feel' it slide BEHIND something, this seconde FS thingy in my taksbar.Well, you could say : Leave it, just don't use alt-tab or the windows key, but my anti-alias is also not working anymore, and I guess it has something to do with this problem. (I activated anti-alias in the ATI catalyst (7.4, the latest), deactivating it in FS and visa versa). Other then that, nothing is more frustrating then having a fast enough system, that does not work properly, innit?Maybe somebody else came across this same problem?Any help would be appreciated....alot.Thanks in advance.LINK/SCREENSHOT :

One for FS9 and one for the windowed part i.e. GPS Radio stack, etc.Jerry
May 25, 200719 yr Jerry,I'm getting ready to fire up my new rig. I did download 7.4 from ATI. What issues besides the AA are you talking about??Ted
