Highmemfix in the FSX.cfg?Otherwise, check to make sure you have the latest drivers. I have a GTX560 and I had to update the drivers when I installed FSX.

Hi, many thanks for your help and prompt reply. I have updated the fsx.cfg file with the "HIGHMEMFIX=1" and updated the drivers for the GTX570. Still having the same problem with the md11. I have a js4100 and that seems to work fine. Is there any other info about my system that night help?

You are definitely seeing a graphics card anomaly. This is likely in your AA/filtering/DX10 settings. I would adjust those and see if things don't re-appear.

Thankyou Sheepfu, I think you were onto something with the gfx card settings. however as i dont know what i am adjusting and how it is effecting the game i am getting mixed results. By adjusting some of the AA and texture settings i was able to get some improvement but not 100%. I was wondering if you could advise how i am to adjust these settings? I apologise in advance for my garble as i do not know much about computers. Thanks in advance. Gary

Gary you should NOT use DX10 preview (except with some specific addon scenery or smthng) mode, as it is not working correctly and makes a lot of other kind of issues. Seems to me - this is the card/driver problem. Try to update OR even install some older driver. Keep the Dx10 preview mode unchecked! ;)
