I’ve played cfs3 on my desktop before and it worked fine, now i have installed it on my new laptop and i have some serious problems with the graphics,
when i start the game you get a menu with a pilot (me i guess lol) and he moves a bit, the problem is he moves weird lol really choppy
when is start a flight everything "shakes" over my screen it all moves forward and backwards real fast Sad , the graphics aren’t to high cause if i set them on min with a screen resolution of 600*800 it does the same

I’ve updated the game to 3.1 and tried to reinstall the game, i have the newest display drivers and i have reinstalled them to, nothing helps Mad

here is a vid of what happens: http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a259/stofjas/?action=view&current=MPG_0031.flv

does anyone knows a solution ??

Laptops are not know for having the best video cards usually integrated.
Your system specs might be too low even for CFS.
If you don't have enough ram that could cause it also.
Defrag the h/d/load new video drivers/set the sim to below default and see if that works.

You have much more than that game asks for it should run as smooth as glass, very odd.
I bet it's something very simple...if only we could hit on it.
