OK, I've run ito a new one! All has been running merrily along with my FS2k2. My 19" CTX monitor had a problem and had to be returned for repair. I'm running on a CTX 17". Windows 98SE pickd up the monitor change and all seems well, refresh is adapter default ( which is my preferred setting).Now, the problem - when I start FS2k2, I always start in the Create Flight screen as opposed to going directly to a default flight. Now when I start, this screen is very dark and distorted, like you would get if the monitor was misadjusted or if the refresh rate was wrong. There'S NO problem with the actual flight display - I'm usually at 1024x768 or 12xx x9xx -= either way the display is clear and bright. the problem is ONLY with the startup screen.
Anyone aware of any settings that might have been changed that I can tweak? None of the obvious settings have any efect. I tried various refresh rates, etc but no joy.
I can live with it and see what happens when my other monitor is retutrned but I'm curious as to what might have caused the problem.
Thanx,
Vic
