Problems with new computer
I built a new computer for MSFS and photo editing, but the graphics don't look as good as those in screenshots on the interwebs. Also, my planephotos appear to have a greenish tint and I fear they would be rejected for "bad color" over there.
Below is a picture of what I see. Any ideas?

Yes, I have an idea: You are at Meigs field. And your computer stopped working many years before Meigs field stopped working.

...as to the topic of the thread, I think this is a near-perfect example of why we need more regulations for back up reservation computer systems!

This is the rarest of the rare: a machine running a Microsoft OS that cannot possibly have a BSOD!

Re: Problems with new computer
Only than the monitor (made in 1984); the rest of the computer -except the video card, made in 1991- is from 2000 or 2001 because of lazyness (didn't want to mess with floppy disks at the moment). That same lazyness is the reason for using MSFS 3 (1 and 2 are booters).That version of msfs is a trifle newer than the hardware...
Maybe it looks better on monochrome displays .(also, is there some reason this forum is using the default phpbb theme?)
