195gb - YIKES!!! :wink:

SOLVED :smile: ------------ Seems to be a problem with the Nvidia 335.23 driver. I reverted to the 332.21 & now the problem is gone. Bizzare!!!

Not sure why you suggest I go to hardware controllers forum as I have disabled all controllers but get same problems at certain airports only!

Pretty convinced it's not a scenery issue now. I unplugged all USB, loaded FSX & selected mouse control. Again same problems, At Compton Abbas, (Orbx UK) all controls worked. I then went to Naxos in Greece & elevators did not respond. Ailerons did briefly but then didn't. However when I exited sim it shut down properly. Weird!! H E L P! :Praying:

What you suggest is not possible in my FTX Control Panel as it is different. Thought about flushing scenery indexes but got scared & have not done that.... Gotta be something in FSX. I recently uninstalled Ultimate Terrain Europe, Canada & Alaska. Wondered if that could have left gremlin???

Slightly confused as the latest version of FTX Central does not have Default or World, it has Global. It also has a Hybrid tick box. I have changes it from Global to Europe & then back again to no avail. FTX Central verifies that the scenery.cfg is OK. If it is corrupted then how do I repair it? I just did a flight from a Non OIrbx area in Texas & that was OK??? The plot thickens..... :unsure:

Update - Just tried Giza, Eygypt & Delhi, India. SAME PROBLEM! Sim seems to work fine in ORBX AREA's. Mmm, What have Orbx done to my sim?

I'm pulling my hair out here. Can anyone help? I have a fairly mega FSX setup. I use a lot of Orbx products. My problem is odd & is as follows. Say for instance I am flying around say UK, NW USA or Norway then I get no problems. I also get no problems from flying in most other locations too. Anyway, recently I bought the latest version of Orbx vector which really made a difference. I thought I'd try & fly around Bergen as I went there a couple of years ago. This looked excellent. I then thought I'd check out some Greek islands. I selected Naxos as an airport, (It could have been Athens or Skiathos etc.) The airport loaded but after a few seconds my Track IR had stopped as well as one of the Axis on my joystick. I then shut down FSX BUT it did not shut down properly!! The main screen turned black, (Ipressed escape & returned to desktop. However the FSX icon was still in my task bar. I went to task manager & found that FSX was still running although I could not switch to it. The task manager did NOT say that the sim had stopped working. If I shut down FSX in task manager & then reloaded FSX then the sim works again unless I go to one of the Greek islands. There may be others but without checking them all I really can't tell. All I know is that the sim seems to work in what I perceive as most areas. Can anyone shed any light on the troublesome problem? I really want to try & escape a re-install as my FSX dir is 170GB!!! (YIKES)!

All OK Now I've got Steve's DX10 Scenery Fixer! :good;

Well if I am still able to Alt-Tab then can anyone tell me if these drivers are better in FSX than my current 314.22 that I am currently using in my MSI GT700NE Laptop which has a 4GB 680M GPU.

　 　 I'm giving this one a miss as in the 327.23 notes it says:- Flight Simulator X–pressing Alt+Tab to switch to the desktop does not work. [293729] Can anyone confirm this or does it work for them using this driver?

Guess so. Cheers anyway.

Sorry but I had 2 issues going on at the same time! Doh! Still a little confused about my missing line?

Odd, Cause they sure as hell look like there is no texture where there should be! Also your screen shot has a line, which looks better, where the taxiway signs side meets the back! Mine does not????

Well that's just plain weird. Could you post a screenshot some taxisigns at Sion Please? Also, Is it safe to reinstall FTX Global over itself? Are there any settings I should check for?

With respect DX10 preview is definitely off. The back of the sign definitely seem to be missing a texture as the black is too uniform. Is it worth deleting & rebuilding the Shaders directory? I agree that the non uninstall of Gex is not the issue.

Turning off DX10 preview help many of the textures. (This is known in FTX Global.) However some airport taxi signs have black rears ie. no texture. Texture is only apparent on one side. Suggestions?

I may have cocked up my fsx. I did have GEX Europe installed. I did not uninstall this as I assumed & read somewhere that FTX Global would overwrite the textures. I therefore installed FTX Global. It all seems fine except black squares in scenery. I enclose 2 x screenshots to demonstrate my problem.... 1. Taken @ Innsbruck 2. Taken @ Jahalabad in Afghanistan Many black squares... Turning off DX10 preview does not help. Seems to be a missing a texture file? Any help would be very welcome!! Thanks. I have FTX Global selected with Orbx tress & Hybrid mode selected.

Thank you very much! ^_^

Does anyone know where I can get a good repaint download for this? Thanks.

Does anyone have a clue as to how close the release of Alaska is?

Anyone? :Waiting:

I installed MS Flight to An external SATA Drive as specs suggested a 10-30gb HD space. The install is <3gb. I therefore want to move the game on my drive C:. Is there any way to move the install without uninstalling & having to d/l the program again without upsetting windows Live settings in registry or messing other trhings up? I know that just moving programs causes registry problems.Any help would be gratefully received, Thanks!

SNAP - Can anyone help please? :Thinking:

Thanks very much!
