Its dead easy mate. Uninstall nhancer (its just a different front end to the nvidia control panel in reality) rename your fsx.cfg file, restart the sim, enable aa in the sim and use it windowed. This should work fine ;)

Cheers Tony..

Having just run FSX again on the new driver but without nhancer, it STILL locks the PC so after a fight, I'm back on the old one again. nhancer, for now, has been uninstalled 8) I knew this was going to be a bad idea.. I'm just annoyed I didn't listen to myself for once :wall:

Ah Ben.. you jumped in there while I was watching Randall and Hopkirk Deceased :lol: I need to get the darned thing stable again then I'll consider having a fiddle.. or just play in FS9 which doesn't accelerate the onset of grey hair :lol:

Y e s..

Pity changing drivers isn't also simple! I'm back on the old driver with a remade cfg and it's just run for coming 3hrs. That'll do for now ;)

Hello Mate..

Having done as described.. I started FSX.. changed as many of the settings I could remember back to how I use them.. then changed to DG's Auster and let it go. Had a nap.. 2 cups of coffee.. my dinner and it was still running. Funny how you can look at a map and there are airfields everywhere yet fly for 3hrs and not fly close to one :lol: Pulled up FSCommander and found I was in deepest Southern Wales (from Exeter).. the nearest stop Pembrey some miles to the SW of me so I landed there and shut down.
I'm not convinced yet but a 3hr trip is a good sign.

This is on 18121 from 19621 and no settings changed in Nvidia Control Panel. I'm not changing it again as I don't have the patience to spend a day fault finding 8)

Graham..
Thanks for looking at Valley. Your zip hasn't arrived yet but I'll check it out as soon as it does ;)

Ker-ding! :hello:

Grahams file didn't sort the problem but I've got there eventually by scrolling down a-n-other thread on the Horizon forums. It seems that the author also uses UKFarms1 and 2 so his advice was to download these (I downloaded part 3 too just to be on the safe side). This has fixed the problem ;)
