Believe me I am very tempted on this baby and I am off to the States in December for a couple of weeks and should the NV30 not be released to retail before then I will be seriously considering buying one of those Radeons......so go and get your one working the way it is supposed to , show us what she can do :-lolBill :-wave

I thought you would have patiently waited for the NV30 John :-hahBill

Brand new Drivers from Nvidia, they seem to be okay so far with a new menu system which offers Texture Sharpening and Anistropic Setting ranging from 0x to 8x :-)http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.aspThey only appear to be available for Win XP and 2000 at this time.Bill

Hi Francois, Very well thank you :-)Just enjoying the day off due to the Bank Holiday (Although it is not a holiday up here in Scotland!!).I get a bit more time on my hands now (I am in a new job) so I try to frequent the forums more often ;-)Bill :-beerchug

Ever wonder what these programs are that is running in the background of your Operating System possibly hogging valuable resources??http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_index.htmThis is a great site which is updated most Thursdays. I just found about 6 things within the startup of msconfig that I dont really need ;-)Bill

Hi, Make sure that the Anti Alaising within the FS Menu is unchecked and that should sort you out ;-)Bill

I have been running an AMD XP1800+ ever since they were released here in the UK and it has been mounted on 4 motherboards with the same heatsink/fan without any instability problems.I was thinking on upgrading to the XP2200+ but there doesnt seem to be that much of a performance increase compared to my current CPU. Im definately gonna buy the "Hammer" when it comes out ;-)B

Hi Chris and thanks for the reply, Actually my departure time isn't until 0015 (Sunday) but I will probably arrive at the Airport about 5pm as I am driving down from Aberdeen. It is Terminal 1 we depart from so I will have a trip up to the viewing area and find the holes in the fence :-)Bill :-beerchug

Hi, Im going off to Ibiza next Saturday flying out of Manchester. As I have a considerable length of time to wait before departure, instead of "propping" up the bar is there a viewing area within the airport where I could put my digital camera to good use ?I promise that I will put some pics in the screenshots forum ;-)Bill :-beerchug

Hi, If you are running Windows XP and have installed the Beta Service Pack 1 this what would be causing your problem. If it is then simply locate the FS2002.exe file in your FS folder , right click and select the compatibility tab and tick the "Run this program in compatability mode for :" and select Windows 2000.Bill
