Hi,
Been running PCM10 without problems. Patched to 103 and been great then had a break last week from it then tried to start again today and when I click on the orange icon on desktop it comes up with the menu Play/Manual/Tech Support/Website ect. so click play and then a get a flash of white screen and it goes back to desktop. Done task manager and no process there.
Don't understand whats happened???
I have just hooked up a HD monitor and resolution changed in Nvidia. so had to download new Nvidia driver from 197.45 to 258.96. If I go back to 197 my FSX won't play in HD?????
Any thoughts on a good working driver for nvidia Win 7 64Bit, or do I play without HD????
FSX looks great as does SBK X in HD so don't really want to loose

Right, Gone back to 197.45 Nvidia driver, no joy. Reinstalled game, No Joy. Run anti Virus and windows update, No Problems. DXDIAG, No Problems.
Everything else works, except PCM10.
Completely vexed by this. |

OK, Think i know what problem is BUT don't know HOW to fix it.
I used to have a pop up come up by the clock that said Win 7 is going to standard colour settings. That doesn't happen with the white screen now. BUT how do you get that back? Tried microsoft Knowledge base and windows update without any joy.
Anyone who knows how to get it backk would be a great help.

Did you try deleting the Config folder in My Docs/PCM? |

It could be cause by a corrupted save or a corrupted local.cdb
Move the saves to another location or delete them. Saves can be found in My Docs\PCM\Database\Solo\[Name of the DB]. Then try again. |

NOT PCM fault!!!!
Installed Win 7 again and found that it detects my monitor as a Bit 3 Analogue monitor NOT a LCD 22" one. Can't get resolution to the standard 1680*1050. BUT if I plug in the Sony Bravia HD TV everything works fine. Need to find out how to make PC see the LCD monitor or how to change????? |

The game has problems recognizing some screen resolutions. You need to edit the config file manually. This question has been answered many times before, so you sure will find the solution in this forum

Found Problem, Monitor was on way out. Turned on and it went poof no more screen. So now trying to find out if I can get a replacement. Warranty 3Yrs BUT company not of the same stature as Hanns-G/Sony and Viewsonic so might have a problem there |
