After years through all versions of IL2 and FS, Installed CFS2 on my ASUS laptop, system is XP32bit, Graphic card ATI Mobility Radeon 3650, with the ASUS driver issued in 2008.

whatever graphic quality I set in settings the graphic won`t go better, no resolution change etc in menu, however if I access the Settings through the bar called out by hitting Alt on keyboard in-game(in free flight), the screen res is changed. But the Menu res still wouldn`t change. The entries in CFS2.cfg is all comprenhensive with my settings though.

Could anybody help?

Thank you very much!

I'm guessing you’re in full screen mode. The graphics are much better when you exit full screen mode for some reason. Hope this helps.

In my experience that is not the case. It might depend on your graphics card.

I'm not sure I understand your problem. Make sure you have hardware acceleration enabled in CFS2 Advanced Display settings & that your Radeon 3650 is selected in the Device box. Read this in the first instance & see if it helps. http://www.microsoft.com/games/combatfs2/articles_performance_settings.aspx

If that doesn't work perhaps you could post a screenshot of your Settings menu so we can see it for ourselves.
