May 10, 201016 yr Commercial Member Yes, reducing the work load on the GPU will help eliminate this problem as it is a result of pushing the card to far.Typically OC'd graphics cards will give you a corrupted display if they are being overstressed usually from a high memory clock. I can get your dot screens if I OC my 285GTX to 675 core and a memory clock of 1260. Could be driver related also.jja Jim Allen[email protected]SkyPilot Software home of FSXAssist / P3DAssist
May 10, 201016 yr Author Commercial Member Thanks for the replies folks - I haven't overclocked it at all, it has a small factory overclock, but nothing major. I should have said that a restart clears the problem - what I don't understand is why the problem doesn't go away when I close FSX. As I said it happens very rarely - I've been tweaking all day since posting and have not had a reocurrence. <a href="http://www.flyaoamedia.com"><img src="http://angleofattack.s3.amazonaws.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/aoasiggy.png"/></a> Nick Collett i5 2500k @ 4.4GHz, GTX 480, 8GB Corsair 8-8-8-24, 300GB WD Velociraptor, Corsair HX850W

May 11, 201016 yr I wouldn't be to shure of that.For example you can slide your AI-slider up. That would put more load on the CPU wich than will produce less frames.

May 11, 201016 yr I had that problem when experimenting with some of the tweaks listed in this forum. Does this problem happen when using a default fsx.cfg file build?
