i just installed SP2 for FSX, now it says my video card is not good enough. oh well, looks like i am stuck with SP1 (at least i can fly on that)
... so, how would i go about removing the SP2??? would it be in Add and remove programs??

Here is the link to the fsinsider site, there may be some clues buried in here. At least there has to be some jewels of wisdom there.

ahhhhh yes, the dreaded shaders.............and I dont think they mean Foster Grants... Laughing

. I believe they are referring to shader 2 or something like that, it was necessary for DX10 support that is now being written into the code.

what in the ???? where was that? and why would a bridge be in the middle of land with no water, or valley below it?? lol... i wonder if the people at microsoft know that the sp2 is messing up like that?

Where is that? I have SP2 and haven't run into this problem anywhere.

More than likely, you don't have the Accelleration package installed either.

I am running SP1 and Acceleration with no problems (fingers crossed), have just started using DX10 as well again no real issue apart from the older a/c not showing!
