Video Card Issues

Postby ming60 » Mon Feb 09, 2009 5:11 pm

Aloha, I just installed FS 2004 and updates(9.1) and it doesn't see my video card. The card is an XFX 7900gs and it has the latest drivers. Is there anything that I can do to get it to see my card?  Any help would really be cool!   Ming

Hello Ming, and Welcome to SimV!

Could you be a little more specific about your sim not "seeing" your video card? Are you having low resolution issues or something?

well my card is not showing up in the FS and I can't use any of the sliders to control the effects and scenery. Oh! 9.1 is an update for FS.
Plus I can't control the resolution.   It plays ok just won't adjust anything.
