Has anyone used this card for FS2002? I've recently borrowed one from a friend, and it's all good apart from a bit of "distortion" in the middle of the screen and outwards. Just a few pixels like to look a bit odd.

The latest ATI drivers from their website do it, haven't tried any other ones.

Anyone managed to use this card fine?

I have the ATI 7000 on board and I've had good results with it.

When I first installed the card, there were issues (graphics hesitation) that resulted from resources being shared by the graphics card and my sound card. I moved the sound card to a different PCI slot and that helped.

Later on I did a Windows re-install (for other reasons) and I think that because the ATI card was in place during that re-install, any other quirks appear to have been solved.

I have a Gateway desktop, and somehow I think there may be some compatibility issues with adding the Radeon graphics cards.

In regard to the distortion, I would check to make sure the display settings for fs2002 are at the same resolution as your monitor/screen. I am currently using 1024x768 pixels.
