  1. Bah, so how do I activate this thing if the support portal is down? Patience required I think.
  2. I'm trying to activate my NGX after a reinstall but get a message that the activation server couldn't be reached. I tried support.precisionmanuals.com but this seems to be down. Is there a problem with activation server? Thanks Jon (Cadwell)
  3. I will give the older drivers a try. See screenshot which better explains my issues. I am using nVidia Inspector which is configured as per Kostas guide. The a/c looks fine - ground textures look awful.
  4. Hi, I have been running Windows 8 RTM since it was released to IT Pros but I am having serious issues with the blurries on FSX. I have an i5 @ 4Ghz, 4GB RAM, SSD, GTX560Ti but yet I can't get it running as well as I had it on Windows 7. Anyone else experiencing the same? I'm sure somebody somewhere is using Win 8 with FSX. I'm not sure if there is something restricting the loading of textures but they seem to pop into view blurred and then refocus very slowly into a sharper texture. Running the latest drivers from nvidia too. UAC and Smartscreen disabled, FSX at the root of C: Any help would be much appreciated.
  5. For those who are having shimmering panels problems did you set texture_max_load=4096 in the fsx.cfg file? I had it set originally, set it back to 2048, lots of shimmers appeared and now it is great again. I think it maybe mentions to do this tweak in the introduction manual.
  6. Holding the menu button again does not turn off the cdu for me.
  7. I think it is more at the end of flight stage. If I switch everything off, then realise I want to go into my options and shut the cargo door which I forgot to close then the CDU will stay illuminated! Small issue I know but I'm just curious. Edit: beaten, but yes my thoughts exactly.
  8. Yes I know that you cannot access FMC menu or anything but what I want to know is that is there a way to turn it OFF by holding down a key? I'm well aware that it is only a sim feature! Thanks
  9. Hi guys, When in a cold/dark state you can press and hold the menu button to power up the cdu to get the menus for ground connections/fs actions etc. Is there a similar hidden command to turn off the CDU in similar fashion? Thanks
  10. Hi, I read about a week ago that there would be a thread on NGX + FSX + memory managment. Have I missed this or is it not posted yet? Thanks
  11. I have had an FMC freeze whilst in a hold at POL VOR near manchester. Once I hit exit hold then nothing happened in the FMC. Also the magenta line for heading select no longer appears on the ND. The simulation is still running but when I hit the menu button on CDU, there is no option for FMC. It has totally disappeared! Any ideas? Thanks Edit: actually the whole ND has frozen and will not update. Edit 2: I have installed the hotfix earlier today.
  12. I'm seriously considering getting the hard copies but they are pretty expensive. The introductory tutorials is plenty of reading for the time being!
  13. I'm guessing the manuals that ship with the NGX are exact copies of the Boeing FCOM and FCTM? The only thing changed is the PMDG logo added to them? If so that is a pretty amazing addition.
  14. Thanks for the update. I am using the latest version from Avsim. Will search for the beta now.
  15. Hi,I wonder how the progress is coming on with the next/latest version of the shader model fix? Any info on this?Thanks
