• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

My copy of Combat Flight Simulator 2 isn't working for me. I haven't played it in over a year and I haven't played it much on the computer I am using so I don't know if my PC is the problem. When I load the game I just get a black screen. I have waited at least five minutes, but nothing happens. Does anyone know what the problem could be? I have already tried reinstalling.
 
A bit more info on your system might make it easier to point you toward a fix:

What video card are you running? What driver for that card?

Do you have DXT9.0 installed?

What is your monitor resolution set at?

My card is a GeForce 8600 GTS. I have directx 9.0c. I'm not sure where to find my driver info. My monitor is at 1152 x 864.
 
OK I fixed it. I went into the nvidia control panel and changed the video quality setting to let the 3D application decid the video quality.
