Geforce Problems

[abaris]

I purchased a geforce Golden Sample 5900 with 256 Ram. Now, FS 2004 shows me a black screen instead of a cockpit. In VC I can fly just normaly and also the outside views are OK. Just the cockpit is gone and that's a bit of a pain in the ass. Any solutions?

 

I've already reinstalled and tried out many different graphics settings.

did you update your drivers with the new card?

 

I've read this fix on another forum and it fixed the issues

Well, thanks a lot. The newest gainward drivers were the culprits. With the standard geforfce drivers the cockpits there again.

I'm using the 53.03 drivers and forceware...getting some great FPS and better performance.

The problem is, that with the 53.03 drivers FS2004 runs great. Yet all other 3D applications are screwed. It isn't exactly a frame loss, it's a frame drop. For example, I'm getting a pretty good 25 to 30 FPS, but still I get the impression of a fast slide show. The game runs, than suddenly a drop. It's just like running a NTSC movie under Pal conditions (25 vs 29 frames per second). There's a jump every second.
