2D Panel and Gauges Blurry After Upgrade

Featured Replies

I upgraded my video card from nVidia 7600GS, 256MB, to nVidia 9400GT, 1GB, and now the writing on ALL my 2D panels are a little blurry. I'm also having problems reading the guages. Prior to upgrading I had no problems reading the lettering and guages. Everything was clear and crisp. Now, you have a hard time reading words and numbers. They're not distorted, just blurry. I've experimented with changing the resolution to a higher resolution. This made some difference by making the words/guages a little easier to read. I don't fly in VC mode; I only use 2D panel.Has anyone had a similiar issue after upgrading? If so, how did you overcome it? (besides a magnifying glass/stronger glasses :)My computer system is dual processor, 2.4GHZ, 2GB RAM, DirectX 9c, Win XP (SP2). I'm using a single 19" monitor with a screen resolution of 1024x768x32.Here's my FS 2004 settings:Display resolution - 1024x768x32Render to texture - checkTransform and lighting - checkAnti-aliasing - uncheckedFiltering - TrilinearMIP Mapping - 4Hardware-rendered lights - 8Global Max texture size - HighFS 2004 Changes made via nHancer 2.3.1:Anti-Aliasing: Combined 8XSGamma correctionAnisotropic Filtering: 16XTexture Filtering - High QualityTrilinear Opt - offAniso. filter Opt - OffAniso. sample opt. - OffNegative LOD BIAS - ClampForce DXT3(OpenGL) - OffPrerender Limit - 3Thanks for your help and advice,Mike Franks

That's a bit of a puzzler.Have you tried backing-up then deleting the FSX.CFG file? This should force FSX to build a new one, which might force it to pay proper attention to your new card.Otherwise, try completely uninstalling nHancer and the Nvidia drivers. Use a utility to make sure you've removed all traces (I think Guru3d has one called "Driver cleaner"). Then reinstall and see if things are any better.Tim
