martinstebbing Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 The drivers for my GTX970 (Win7 x64) were quite old and since I was having a few issues, I let Windows Update install later ones (388.13). Problem is, FS9 (haven't checked FSX, I almost never use it) now looks, well, horrible, with no anti-aliasing as far as I can see. I installed the latest nVidia Inspector (2.13) and re-saved my FS9 profile, but no change. Maybe nVidia Inspector doesn't work with these drivers? Has anyone else had problems like this? Is there a way to get nVidia Inspector to work with this driver - or is there a later driver (388.13 is not the latest) that anyone can recommend for FS9, which will work in nVidia Inspector? As it is, I can't fly FS9 while it looks like this! (My graphics settings in FS9 are unchanged, as recommended in nVI). The PC in question also runs X-Plane 11, but that has its own graphics setup, and all is fine there (I don't have an nVidia Inspector profile for X-Plane). Thanks for any help/recommendations. Martin EDIT: Installed 388.59 driver, re-created my nVidia Inspector profile and all seems well again. Nice crisp lines... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel.T Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 Yep, Windows updates can "scrap" our tweaks just like that... Had the same bad surprise, a few days ago. A so called major update messed my GDU drivers and flushed the FSX profile of NV Inspector, even changing the title from MS Flight Simulator X to Microsoft Flight Simulator 10. Very very annoying when everything was fine on my dedicated system for FSX... And like you did, tweak & tune (again) to get it back OK. From now on, NO MORE Windows and/or NVidia updates on this system, NEVER ! i7-4790K @4400 on Gigabyte Z97X (16gb), GeForce GTX 970 OC, Corsair Spec case Win7 Ult(64) on Samsung850 SSD(256), FSX+Accell on Samsung850 SSD(256), Track IR5 Saitek yoke/rudder radio/multi/switch panels, Logitech G13, GMap on Samsung tab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinstebbing Posted December 16, 2017 Author Share Posted December 16, 2017 I never used to let Windows updates run at all, as the results seemed to be more often bad than good. On the other hand, I guess you see the bad, but never notice the good. So I do run them now, but always choose which updates I install first. I will certainly not let it install drivers again. I never did in the past and am not sure why I did that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
