Time to wake up cockpit, monitors/displays
Hi all,
SO good to see PM folks have a home :)
I am at the point of trying to configure monitors with FSX, and PM.
SO far, this has been semi-daunting.
My goals are:
- Easy "wake-up" of the simpit... throw the power switch, click on an icon or two, and we're good!
- Appearance: No evidence of MS Windows. This means NOT being in windowed mode for PM or FSX, or finding some way to "hide" the windows and task bar.
My Rig:
I have a new dual core PC, with BFG 7800 video card currently driving 2 displays:
- Display 1 is a 1024x768 video projector, to display the main flight view
- Display 2 is a 600 x 800 touchscreen for the PM regional glass cockpit
Currently, the displays function, but I'm not happy that I seem to have to be in windowed mode, in order to drag the displays around.
As soon as I put the main display in full screen mode, the PM instrument display goes black.
I know many builders have been here before me :) How did y'all deal with these issues?
Thanks ever so much!
