Anyone else having problems with CaptainSim 757
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2008 5:26 pmPuter specs:
Core2Duo 2.4 GHz
2 Gb Memory
EVGA 8800GTS
Intel D975BX2 M/B
FSX and Windows are both on a Raptor Drive
First let me say I have their 727 (it has no VC however) and it works great. I also have the CLS DC-10 series, along with PerfectFlight TriStar...they all work fine (including VCs) and have since I got them. No problem with FPS, etc., all happy and content with performance.
Got CaptainSim757 this weekend and it is killing my card. Sometimes where there should be land or ocean there are triangles/rectangles of pure white. Also, the REGULAR cockpit, not the VC, but the regular one the frickin dials (alt, hdg, etc) will only work in one direction....weird. Say you put your altitude at 30,500....the dial will NOT let you turn it back down, only UP...same thing with the other buttons.
I'd try their help desk but their systems for support and everything else, even getting the extra liveries, is all down. This was not evident until AFTER I had purchased the dang thing so I'm a little miffed at "CaptainSim" right now!
Just curious if anyone else ran into this and if you found anything that helped....besides another vid card. I know the 8800 GTS isn't the best, but it's nothing to sneeze at either.
One other thing....this motherboard I have is actually set up for the dual ATI cards....has anyone every tried this configuration? I read a couple of reviews and tests a little over a year ago and nothing then seemed too impressive. Curious if some better cards/drivers have changed that situation?
