April 10, 20197 yr Hello I updated to the latest Nvidia drivers the other day, and shortly after started getting some error messages in P3D which appeared to be graphics related. I was going to roll-back, but with the release of 4.5, could anyone tell me if theyare getting good results with the most recent drivers (417.xx from memory?). I intend on doing a full re-install but want to have correct stable drivers in place first. thanks Ian Ian S

I fixed it by doing a sfc /scannow and it did quite a number of repairs and all good now. Try that.
April 10, 20197 yr Do you guys notice better performance, overall, with this version ( P3D 4.5 ) ? I'm on Nvidia too, GTX 960 4GB, and usually set no fancy graphic effects ( no shadows whatsoever in my installs ). Looking fwd for the FSLabs Airbus updates to get released and try it in 4.5 :-) Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)

Cheers Hi Ian, Follow the sfc /scannow step in the AVSIM CTD guide, the link of which is above to your right on this screen. It is native windows functionality on your computer that checks itself for corrupt or missing files in your Windows installation and repairs or replaces them. It is very safe and cannot juicy fruit your computer. Cheers, Mark
