i'm sure this is easily fixed:
1) will launch, but only as black screen. I do have sound.
2) Menu screens are black. i can hear my 'tabs' as i tab around, but it's pure black....until
3) i tab to free flight (purley by tabbing in the dark) and i can see the plan selection.
4) i select a plane (again all dark but the rotating model of the plane)and can get into free flight...once there
5) all is ok. i can see, fly etc.
anyone?

Hi guys
I have exactly the same problem, but cannot find the file. I've created a new one in the cfs2 top directory and pasted the config into it but still the same problem. Should the file be in a different directory? If so, where?
cheers Mike
