My system no longer displays relective textures. I have tried the nvidia 29.42, 30.82 and 40.72 drivers with no luck. I have all the correct boxes checked and all the sliders except target frame rate maxed out. Any suggestions?

I can see yuou have a superb sys.I have a GeForce 4 MX440 64MB that I resently installed.I even instaled the Rivatunerfrom Guru3D.com that by the way its ecxelent tweker for the NVIDIA cards.I am getting ecxelent results and performance but shurely mis those reflectons on the ocean whith the Envo addon that makes the ocean so fine and real.On the other hand my CFS3 runs super nice whith outstanding reflections.So I don't think its he video card.I had a GeForce2 MX 64MB that was a litlle slower ,especialy whith the CFS3 but gave me superb reflectons.I just might switsh cards to see what hapens.I will keep you posted about any progres.

Did you have also checked "Multiple Textures" on the FS2002 hardware settings?? If not do so and you will enjoy your reflections.
