Hi,

I have just installed Vista Home Premium and FSX. When I double click on the
icon I get a message


"The color scheme has been changed to Windows Vista basic"

Is this a driver issue? I was under the impression that FSX was designed for
Vista. FS9 runs fine.

regards

sb

No this is with the software itself, hopefully it will be addressed in the
upcoming patch.

Thanks Paul.

I wonder why the system requirements on the FSX box stipulate Windows Vista?

Well because it works on Windows Vista. 8-)

They'll be releasing a DirectX 10 patch at some point which will enable some
extra like DirectX 10 support.
