i am having an issue when i have FSX accelerator installed. The menu bar when i try to use it will not fuction correctly if i click on an item, and the whole program locks up. Anyone know if there is a fix or work around for this?

This has nothing specifically to do with Acceleration.It's a bug in the nVidia driver that affects not just FSX, but other games as well. A feature (unknown which one) introduced with FSX SP2 exposed the bug. nVidia hasn't (and probably won't) fix the bug.Search the forums here. There are some folks reporting fixes to this problem that involve changes to nVidia settings related to AA and AF.Till then, as long as you don't use your mouse, you can still use the FSX menus ... just use the keyboard instead (Alt key).Cheers,
