Try running in windowed mode first (edit conf.ini to start in a small window). Then change back to fullscreen.

its a gts 450 which is above the min spec of gfx card required and i run at 1240 res so i dont see the problem ill have a checks and see if i can find a solution

EDIT

ive tried everything i can think of but still this game does not want to lad im begining to think that this is just a peice of ****. i hat to say that because ive been a massive fan of the IL-2 serries ever since the release of IL-2 Sturmovik FB and this is just making me annoyed

I am having the same issue. Red box, no map, crash to desktop once I press fly but still can hear engine sound. I have no idea why it does that.

That is a Windows7/Vista error, "Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered" because windows thought it didn't respond fast enough.

There is a registry fix for that, just google for "Display driver has stopped responding and has recovered"

I have this error often with CoD and ArmA II

Just out of curiosity you dont have any overclocking done to your graphics card do you? I noticed similar issues if I overclocked my card too much, where other games would be fine, CoD would crash...

Nope i have not overclocked my gfx card, its and Asus EN GTS450 Direct CU with the factory defualt settings, no overclock. Im just going to wait until there is a new update which hopefully there will be next week (which will be great because all my exams are done by then and i have 3 weeks off wooohoooo)

Mate I think possibly although I could be wrong that your GPU is the same card my friend has who I've mentioned has the same problem. I will check and get back.

Here is comparison of gts450 to gts250 http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/300154-15-pros-cons

Please keep the support coming, its such an annoying feeling when this happens

Thanks

What is the exact number of the driver? 301.24 for old cards, the 301.10 for 680 only.

Check the SUPPORTED PRODUCTS tab...

but my card still works on other games, i made sure of it. So it cant possibly be the drivers, ill reinstalle the old ones and give it a try but i dont think itll make a difference

hey guys im just about to finish downloading the nvidia 296.XXX drivers, restoring from the 301.xxx so hopefully this will work, but im doubtful
