I thought I'd left the graphics driver alone so that shouldn't be the case m8, I was looking to update the chipset/motherboard drivers... I now can get no further than the beginnings of safe mode. I have 2 windows that I can't click or tab on, even after plugging in a ps2 mouse and keyboard. They work to get me to safe mode, but won't let me click on anything now...

hmmm, dont have a clear safe mode reference on the screen....details the drives to select then 'nvidia Age or 2 Nvidia'

Cheers Pete, how do i find safe mode? Do i get that from the bios?

sorry, I'm using the laptop to communicate on because the fault is on my gaming rig....I'm also on TS

On my wifes laptop for this..... downloaded the latest nforce drivers,

Good luck JP, sounds like a sound move. Sid

Did this last year. The chair legs slot into the rear of the 2 layer wooden base...ultimate test was when we changed the dining furniture!!! Moved the upper part of the base and hey presto, new chair slotted in...yeahhh

Arriving Friday, departing Sunday - slumming it at the Red Lion Cheerzen

Thanks for replies....still grinning

Sorry m8, I put it up with one to try the size....more now!! Got more aswell.....

I received a phone call from an aquaintance that flys a Vans RV-6 yesterday asking if I wanted to go flying today (Sunday) - naturally I said yes!! Weather at Staverton, Gloucestershire, was gorgeous Saturday, was nice today but was gusting up to 24 knots northerly crosswind at some of the fields we were looking to fly into -

Any chance of nailing Sister Rebbeca.....?

lol......

Doh, trust me....went straight for the 'IL2' solution....planes, planes, planes...all I think about...

Try this in the conf.ini file found in the IL2 main folder - it's near the top of the list (opens in notepad....just in case ). The width and height refer to whatever the resolution is: [window] width=1680 height=1050 ColourBits=32 DepthBits=24 StencilBits=8 ChangeScreenRes=1 FullScreen=1 DrawIfNotFocused=0 EnableResize=0 EnableClose=0 SaveAspect=0 Use3Renders=0

It is, yes. That is similar to how I had my X45 set up before replacing it with the X52. Mode 1 was for takeoff and landing as the control use was similar, Mode 2 was for flying (general and combat) and Mode 3 was for level bombing (when I used it!!) and special things like the guided rockets. I used that setup for ages. With the X52 I use mode 1 for pretty much everything and use the other modes for things that require guaranteed separation ie bailout.

It works M8! Awsum now I can just leave the thing plugged in,

Cheers for that Brando, I imagine that would have got frustrating as prop pitch is something you need to behave. I did contemplate using the Belkin scroll wheel but I've had pitch mapped to the slider on the X52 throttle for some time and am used to it being there - it allows me to alter throttle and pitch at the same time. However, after having it on the slider I have come to the conclusion that in general I use 3 settings, 100% (takeoff and landing), 90% (general use) and 50% (preventing overspeed in dives). I do use other settings occaisionally when I can be bothered to monitor the RPM and balance the pitch in the 'green' zone but in a swift moving environment this isn't easy. The throttle slider is good because it is handy but it isn't easy to select a setting first time and I find myself needing to check it has been set after moving the slider. To get over this I am looking to use a key for each of my common settings and see how that works. Cheerzen

How did you get on??

Yea...Happy Birthday m8
