Hey All;Just lately my FlightSim9/EZ Scenery/AFX has started to act up. With AFX, it will open up a file and as you work with it, the program (AFX) starts to hang up for periods of time. Many times going to an all white display with a black stripe across the screen. Eventually it comes back to the afcad that was being edited and you can continue . . . til it hangs again.EZ-Scenery is doing something similar. The control panel disappears and the area where it was on the screen retains the portion of the screen that was behind it. If you mouse click in that area part of the panel returns. And a good many times when you start FS, the popup that comes up in the middle of the splash screen that says verbage about rebuilding the scenery index, when it goes away the area where it was is black. Then when FS loads, it loads a third of the screen at a time. Then runs properly. It certainly seems it is video related, as when you save anything done in either AFX or EZ-Scenery it appears correct and FS works fine by its self.Has someone seen anything like this ? Words of advice ?FWIW, system is Pentium 4 - 2GHz, 1022MB RAM, PCI NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 w/ 256.0 MB, display mode: 1440 x 900 (32 bit) (60Hz), XP Home SP2? ? ? JB

Hi JB, sounds video related as you said. Open your case and clean out all the collected dust bunnies with some compressed air, especially if your GPU has a fan on it (make sure it's operable). Could make a world of difference.
