New graphics card installed .....but!

I have installed a nVidia 7900 followed by updated drivers.  Seems to be working alright but when I mooched through my fs9 cfg I noticed this :  
[DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce 6800 .0]
Mode=1680x1050x32
TriLinear=1

Should I replace the 6800 with 7900GS?
I thought the cfg would automatically update itself.

Thanks, TerryW

make a backup copy of the cfg file there, then go ahead and remove that one and then restart the sim

from there THEN the sim will rebuild the cfg file ;)

Dead on here this is what you need to do. After installing a different video card you will need to rebuild the fs9cfg file. All you really need to do is to take out the lines
[DISPLAY.Device.NVIDIA GeForce 6800 .0]
Mode=1680x1050x32
TriLinear=1
