Video Card ?

Ok I got the FX5200 installed....WOW it is MUCH better, but I am having a couple of issues that I didnt have with the other one..

First of all, sometimes when I click to bring up the kneeboard, or hit ALT to bring up the menu at the top of the screen, or bring up FSNav, it will bring up the little hourglass icon, and it doesnt freeze, but the hourglass icon will stay up there for about 30 seconds before it opens up whatever I clicked for it to open  ???

Also on some of the panels, if I set anti aliaising to anything other than application controlled, you can see the ground around the very edges of the panel in 2D, but it doesnt happen in the VC  ???

Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanx in advance..

I think that the issue here could be a driver clash - download Driver Cleaner (just google it), then uninstall your display adapter(s) from the Device Manager.

After all this, restart your PC and install the drivers for the GeForce 5200 from the nVidia website.

careful with the fx5200 and the latest drivers.  I had one and it was not happy with the latest offering on the website.  If it goes @*$# try one of the earlier driver versions
