Offcenter panel

I just reinstalled FS on an older computer of mine and all the panels are offcenter to the right a bit.  Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance :)

I've noticed that the 2D panels can be dragged around. Try that.
But if the sky, etc. is also offset, I'm not sure what to tell you. except to maybe try a different refresh rate or maybe see if you can use your monitor's settings menu to shift everything over...

You might have something there. If it's offset in all views try adjusting the monitor settings while in FS9. The 3D display can be set separately from the normal 2D desktop.

. . . and remember: space bar centers the views.

Thanks for the replies, I tried dragging it but it there is now panel past the edge of the screen, like you dragged a normal sized panel around, it just doesn't show up.

Can you post a shot so we can see what the problem is.

the best thing to make sure, make sure theres no black gaps to the left and right/bottom or top of the screen. if so, just drag the panels or the view out of the window to the side where the black is, thisll ensure everything is in the right position and where it should be. i know this is pretty simple but its all i can think off ???

I figured it out, I had to change the resolution to 800x600 instead of 1024x764.  Thanks anyways everyone though.

If you mean the display resolution in FS9 itself I can't see how that would make any difference. All this talk of dragging panels makes me think you're in Windows mode. If the sim runs in a window try hitting Alt + Enter to put it in Full Screen mode.
