571798 2007-07-23 10:15:00 My Nvidia 8800 GTS has thrown a wobbly.

When starting fs9 in full screen the picture on the setup page is just a black square.The program runs properly. But when I enter multiplayer the bottom third of my monitor turns black. Then when I turn radar on the bottom two thirds of my screen turns black.

But if I change to windows mode it all comes right again.

Everything was right this afternoon. But when I switched it on tonight this problem arose.

I have tried turning off AA and filtering. Have turned the computer off for half an hour. Still no difference.
Seems to me it no longer likes a three D object on top of a 2D display.

Does it look like my vid card is stuffed?
Or what?

Id uninstall the video drivers, then clean out anything left over with driver cleaner pro, then install a fresh download of the latest driver.

571802 2007-07-23 20:56:00 Solved. Seems I had a corrupted driver.

Downloaded new one. 3d mark rose from 7553 to 18291.

Thanks for helpful suggestions.:thumbs:
