Disply Issue

[Guest PowderBlue]

Hey Guys, Well I updated my system with a K9N-NEO MB, 4 gigs of 3200 ddr2 Ram and a 8800 GTS Vid card.When I load up the sim everything works fine. After some time about 5 to 10 minutes the surrounding scene such as planes and basically everything is all jagged and my frames go from 25 to 13. I don't know what causes this and I have the latest drivers and have tried a few older versions as well. Anyhelp would be appreciated.

Ok In the first pick was flying around for about 5 min didn't have anything happen this time, but I shut the sim off 2 min after the shot so maybe not enough time.I will post the other as soon as It happens again. Also I have no AA unless I have the AA checked in Sim and I have overide the setting applications during the video card setup.

-OK here are some pics of what happens. It looks like my AA is turning off.It seems as if there is an issue with the nvidia drivers. I have tried 3 version. I dunno nay help would be appreaciated

I never had nVidia, but on ATI you could have issues if you didn't uninstall old drivers correctly, have you tried making a thorough uninstalling of old drivers first?Marco

Since I built my system from scratch this time , I just retired my old card and never installed the ATI stuff. So no driver residuals.

Long time ago, in a galaxy far far away, I experienced similar effects. Turned out be be a heat issue: insufficient ventilation for my videocard.Jaap Verduijn.

From others' posts - I always understood that when using an nVidia card AA had to be on both in the hardware AND in the sim. No?

[Guest PowderBlue]

That seems to be the case that AA has to be turned on , on both card and in sim. But even then it will lose the AA and go to the jagged stuff, and it always does it after I switch to the menu or start squawkbox or some action such as that.Also I'm not so sure its a heat issue. as with my upgrade I moved to a bigger case twice the size as my old one, I also have 3 system fans and 1 cpu fan in the case.

"(...)

Extremely unlikely after all, considering the above information.All the best,Jaap Verduijn.

After reading and reading and reading it seems as if this may be a driver issue with Nvidia. I think I might have the issue under control using a program called nhancer. I'll keep ya updated because I just can't see how a company can sell a 600 dollar vid card and not give support for it. Nvidia has not been exactly helpful.

First off download and install Driver Cleaner Pro http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=745#download then:1. Download and save new driver to desktop.2. Go to Add/Remove Programs and delete old driver.3. Go to Start, Programs, Run and type in msconfig. Go to boot.ini and select

>Thanks for that I will try it, what post refers to making a>new CFG/ ThanksHi Jason,Find your FS9.cfg located in C:My DocumentsDocuments and SettingsUsernameApplication DataMicrosoftFS9, copy and paste a backup in your "My Documents" folder and then delete the .cfg file. Start FS9 and redo your settings. At this point I exit FS9 and make whatever changes are necessary in the FS9.cfgAnd that is it. Good luck,
