Hi Guys

I reinstalled FS9 the other day and now it isnt running in a window with all the menus at the top and I cant think for the life of me how i got it like it when I first installed it, basically FS9 is running in full screen mode to which I have to "exit out" to get windows desktop to show, can someone point this nub in the right direction?

Thanking you in advance :)

Deano, ALT+ Enter switches display mode between Windowed and full screen. When you switch to windowed mode you will also probably get an increase in framerate over full screen.

Your welcome Deano. Much head scratching was done to get mine running across both monitors. Tip: look in the Key assignments, re-assign keys as you like.

Also, if you are running at full screen, press ALT and the taskbar will pop up.
