All the icons on my desktop have been shunted to the top left hand corner when I close FS2002. I have my display set to 1280x1024 32 bit colour and FS2002 hardware setting is the same.It would seem that at some point FS2002 goes into 800x600 mode (for the opening/splash screen?). I am sure that you experts out there know of some way of preventing this?Thanks in advanceDon Rowley

OK, problem solved. Nothing to do with FS2002, was the desktop settings!!Highly embarassedDon

Hi Don...Do not be embarrassed... I Had the same problem. :(I always run Desktop @ 1024x768/32-bit... and, at first, FS2002 Pro was doing the same thing; going to default 800x600, during the loading sequence. It turns out that, whenever I went to close the FS program (Ctrl+Alt+Del), I noticed that "FS2002" was listed 2 times per the 'Close Program' menu.... hmmm (?!)Anyway, as soon as I had exited the duplicate, everything went back to normal. Silly me... it turns out that I had clicked on the FS lauchbar icon too quickly (too many short starts), and that is why more than than one FS program would attempt to load at the same time :)I am glad you got your program solved, Don... Happy Flying!Stanley
