FS9 Issues With New Computer

[Markek 2]

I am having trouble with new computer and FS9 and would appreciate any assistance. (FSX seems to work fine the short time that I have spent with it.) For example the Alt key will not bring up menu but slowly fades the sound instead, cycling through views usually, but not always, causes loss of cockpit view. Can get gauges back most of the time but not full panel. Flaps (F keys)ignore any partial extension-only respond to all the way down or up. Lot of little quirky issues like this. I'm not overly computer literate but very familar with FS9 from previous computers, so it's not me.System is an HP quad Core with Nvidia 8500 and LG 22" flat screen.Thanks.Mark

Welcome to the forums.Sounds like your default key assignments for FS9 have been somehow altered. A quick and dirty solution is to save your FS9.cfg from it's default location (C:/Windows/Documents and Settings/your user name/Application Data/Microsoft/FS9. You must have "Show hidden folders" enabled on your system) and then delete the original FS9.cfg. Now start the sim and it will make a new FS9.cfg with all default settings.Hope this helps,
