I am running the latest Nvida drivers for my GeForce 8800GT. I downloaded Vista drivers (100.65)as per your blog but when I go to install them I get an error message which reads "Nvida setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatiable with your current hardware". Any idea on the problem or could you give me the link to the drivers required in case I am trying to install the wrong one. Regards John I always get out of memory errors under Vista (32) bit.

It is 07.17.08 and no fix in site yet!!! One of the reasons I purchased a new Vista based system was DX 10. Since I use FSX and X-Plane ... What a big disapointment it is ... I'll bet that MS will fix this problem in the new FS what ever but it will cost us bucks to get it. I DON'T THINK SO!!! Good luck simmers - we've been taken again Bob OK ALL!!!

In response to your BLOG, I hope this may help aswell, I have loaded the driver recommended and I was still getting the BSOD. I found though if I turn off everything you can turn off in the Nvidia control panel and then run FSX and change your setting to what ever you use - Mine are all maxed out I have not yet had the BSOD. I have completed a few flights and so far have not had a problem. I think that settings between the control panel and the game do not communicate for some reason, (I'm no teckie). Before I would get the BSOD about 5 minutes into the game. Also using the driver recommended in the BLOG my system is vary stable - it used to crash whilst my son was surfing the internet and playing games in the Nick Jr site, this no longer happens. I hope this comment helps those who are trying to fly but finding themselves permanantly grounded.

I enjoyed your comments, but (you knew there would be a BUT in there somewhere) I have a AMD X2 6400 3.2ghz with 4 gb Mem, 1100 watt PSU, Asus M2N32 SLI mobo and 2 9800 GX2's. I have found "NO" performance improvement going from 1 card to 2 cards in quad SLI ... Also I was running 2 8800 GTS's and again "NO" performance improvements going to SLI ... Many of the forums I have gone to report the same.... Code guys say FSX does not support SLI Hi!

I like your homebuilt simulator. I'd love to have one. I'm running FSX on Win vista 32, and I've never got a BSOD. My processor is 64-bit but my vista is 32. I tried to install win vista 64, but I'd get a BSOD on the vista setup boot. Nothing to do I guess, I didn't find a solution. I've found out that both Autogen and Light Bloom kill FPS so I don't use them and I get 30-40 FPS. I've got 8800GTX on a DELL XPS system. We'll be talking around... Hello.
