Anyone any idea how this can happen? Never happened before. Started after I installed NickN's sun fix, but I don't think that is the problem, as once I removed the sun fix, it still does this. Any help much appreciated

First I thought it was a hard ware issue, but I see you specs are pretty decent (better than mine) maybe a bad driver? Undecided

Yup, I'm pretty sure its not that though, still happens when I remove the effect and restore the default.

I really don't know what to tell you then. You'd have to consult Nick or someone more experienced than me. I'm afraid I've never seen this.

Guess that's what I'll have to do - I'm going to have to spend today re-installing my add-ons Sad

Your lucky. Last time I saw that on my screen was the day before my video card decided to self destruct. Glad to hear you fixed it with no problems.

did you remove the suneffect.cfg ? and place the ORIGINAL BACK???in the main FSX directory? or maybe you accidentaly delete a file ,try the restore ,or try the repair option of FSX..

I didnt have any problem with Nick's sun I unistaled and reinstaled like 4 times (for the shots I show here) http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1193078704 ; and I didnt have a problem at all, so I suggest not to blame Nick's

I reinstalled the original suneffect.cfg

I never knew FSX had a repair option... Where abouts can I find it?
