The screenshot below was taken after a long flight - and after FS9 had been stopped. can somebody kindly explain to me what it all means?http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/185664.jpgThanks Barry

Never mind - I found the answer in the manual!!!:-eek Another thing I found was a suggestion that I reduce down my Conn=** and Rate=*** in the INI file - as my ADSL Broadband connection is not a 2 Gig one, just a 1 Gig connection. So I halved those two settings. I just retraced a flight path that I had previously done and which had presented a few problems (black squares and slow display of higher res textures) - this time in the reverse direction it was perfect!!Barry
