FSX acceleration; problem

Arclight · 04-10-09, 04:52 AM

I recently switched to Win7 beta. Yesterday the acceleration expansion pack was delivered, and I reïnstalled FSX. Tried running it, and it ran fine, loading that first introduction flight without issues. Then I installed the expansion, and now when I try to start the game it tells me there is insufficient shader model support; claims either drivers or hardware is incompatible.

Any experiences with this, or suggestions?

Running Win7 beta (build 7000), GeForce 8800 GTS 512 (G92 core), ForceWare 182.50, tried 182.06 as well.

In the past there were problems with the Forceware driver and SP2 which is included in the ACC pack. A workaround solution was to disable the Multiple Displays in the nVidia Control Panel and selecting "Only use one display".

That worked like a charm! Thanks mate, you're the best.
