No 2d-Panel

Postby Ijineda » Tue Jan 11, 2005 2:31 pm

Maybe this has been posted before, but I was not able to find it...
Just patched Fs9 and WinXP (with service pack2), everything is running, but in full screen mode I cant see a 2d-panel (where it should be the screen stays black); in window-mode its there. all the rest of the views are ok. any solutions?

I had the same problem.  All I had to do was update the drivers for my video card and it went back to normal.

That's a problem people had when FS 2004 first came out. It's a driver problem with some video cards. The workaround is either fly in Window mode or update the vidcard drivers (if available).
