RE: Problems with win2k

Title: Message

I also have XP Pro, an Althalon with an A7V M/B and 512mb ram, running a GF2MMX and I have no problems at all.

 

I am running DX 8.2 with the signed 30.82 drivers. I know there are later drivers but I have never found a reason to upgrade.

 

Hope this helps,

Stuart.

Roberto I have this exact same problem with Windows XP Pro, I am running an AMD 1 Gig in a A7V Motherboard with 512mb Memory and a GEForce 2 MMX Graphics Card and I cannot get the HUD to display and the Yellow Information Writing at the top of the in game screen Flashes and flickers.  The PC is set up perfect, I run MS Flight Sim 2002 with all the Graphics Details etc set to max and I do not have a problem, only the new Orbiter is messing me about.  If anyone has any ideas at all on a possible fix for this I would be very grateful.

 

PS the Drivers I am using are the Latest NVidea 411.09.  I thought my old drivers were not upto punching Orbiter around for some reason so updated.  No effect.

 

Regards and Seasons Greetings to all,

Sorry for the OT, but has anyone experienced a lot of crashes with win2k pro? I have the italian version and meny scenarios crash telling that memory couldn't be written, you know.

How can I work it around?

Thank in advance,
