Strange start up screen

[NCGent]

Hey Folks

A few days ago I fired up FS9 and the start up screen was at the top of the screen about half covered up. I have looked but don't see any way to change it but I'm there is a way.....anyone know?


Thanks
Chris

Have you turned your anti-aliasing settings up? I seem to remember FS2004 goes a bit funny if it's set too high...

Go to Windowed mode (Alt-Enter) and centre the window.
Restart...

Thanks! I've had this problem ever since I got my widescreen monitor (my opening screens were way off to the side and about 1/4 visible) and this fixed it. Great!!

...as did I when I first got my wide screen.
And since I was given the fix on this very forum, I thought it only reasonable to give it back!

Ya know...I've had this same problem for YEARS...but never bothered trying to fix it, since it didn't seem to have any negative effect on FS. However, I tried the Alt+Enter fix an re-centered it, and PRESTO: my startup screen is now centered for the first time since, oh, 2004!
