New Win10 system very slow to change screen mode

Featured Replies

Setting up a new 1079ti system and, once I installed FSX SE, I immediatly noticed it was very slow in changing from window to full screen and vice versa - the screen goes black for 3-4 secs during the change. This compares with an almost instant change with my 5 yr old Win 7 system.

I have at the back of my mind that I had this sometime (years) ago with the Win7 system but the old brain cells are not what they were and I have no idea how I fixed it.

So very grateful if anyone has any ideas?

Many thanks

1) Try deleting the shaders folder from AppData\Local\Microsoft\FSX  and restarting. It should rebuild the files again from scratch. (make a backup just in case).

2) Remove and install the latest drivers from your graphics drivers website.

Thanks for your help.

Updated drivers certainly reduced the delay somewhat - then I remembered DX10. And with that selected along with Steve’s fixer installed, the problem disappeared with the mode changing almost instantly when selected.
