Goodly morning all... <<u

Have made some Setting Changes as suggested by Dave in my previous post..."Finally...it took awhile..."

I still could not take Screenshots in Full View...FSX/Acceleration...Windows 10...not sure why when I could take Screenshots in Full Screen in Windows 7...does anyone know of a setting I need to change :?:

Location: Friday Harbour...USA
Time: Dawn and Day
REX and Flight Simulator Water Configurator were used

Dang...forgot to turn on FRAPS :doh:

Simulated Aircraft is the Carenado Cessna 172 Float

You did set your resolution to your default monitor screen size? might be larger than mine because this pc is a laptop.

Hi Dave...

I am running two monitors and the resolution is set to the number 1 monitor which is the largest and newest. "Samsung"

1024 X 768 X 32

According to the Control Panel the Recommended Setting is 1920 X 1080 but that setting only gives me a half screen on my larger Samsung Monitor.

My number 2 monitor is used to view radios, GPS, REX Weather etc. "acer"

REX Weather Unit will not share a screen with anything else...not sure why but when I place the GPS on the number 2 monitor the REX Unit disappears :think: :?:

Sorry to hear you are still having problems I found this for setting up dual monitors windows 10 http://www.pcworld.com/article/2953978/ ... setup.html which may be of use to you. Hopefully someone running w10 will jump in with the solution good luck Dave.

I would also check that the fsx cfg file has set the correct resolution something like Mode=1920x1080x32 its in appdata/roaming/fsx not sure about windows 10 location or if you have to move it to desktop to make alterations like windows 7. If its wrong alter it manually and put back in the original location make a backup of original file first.
