My hard drive went bad a couple days go so I had to replace it. I was able to make a ghost image from the old one and put it on the new one. I reinstalled FS2002 and it works ok except that the little red box in the lower left corner for the brakes and the ATC box are just white and don't show any text. I had this problem the first time I installed it but I don't remember how I fixed it. Does anyone have ideas? THANX HEAPS!!! Laughing

not enough RAM probably. it runs smoothly on 512mb and up. your sig says something like 364 or something. you probably need more RAM.

I know I need more ram and I now have a 200gigb hard drive (80 was wrong). I had fs2002 running fine with my current ram but I think I lost a driver or something when in put in my new hard drive. I am currently trying an S3 triov2 graphics card that a friend gave me. I would like to know if this is any better than my ATI Rage Pro or not. With the current settings FS2002 only runs in safe mode because it says my system does not have hardware acceleration.
