Yes I am Michael, thank you for looking at this. Always good if a second person can have a look at. And you are right.... You know what fools me? In the SDK you put the address offset in Hex and the size in decimal. That's why I was going wrong. Shame on me. The second one ------------------------------------------- Your write to 32FA seems odd too: 119592 WRITE0 32FA, 2 bytes: 00 03 ------------------------------------------- was just for testing. :-)

Hi Pete, yes, same happens with non-scrolling text. Sadly I cannot attache here something. I send the logfile to you. I will have also some tests on the computers of my collegues so I can figure out if it's just on my PC.

Shit... same things happening. After sending the text it get's displayed and after that any change of the view leads to the black screen. :-( By the way, displaying text from a MS Adventure is working without any problem. Well... if I can find a solution (or wait until there is a Nvida driver without producing this bs :roll: ) I will tell.

Well... I am on the newest available Video Driver. I have no problems with switching views an black screens before. What I do is to use FSUIPC, entering my zero determined text into &H3380 and put &HFFFD into &H32FA. The text is displayed but after that I cannot switch to a different screen anymore because of the black-screen effect. Again, without this action I have no black screen effect at all. I just wonder if someone has discover this problem, too. I know that FSUIPC didn't do anything in manipulating graphic related stuff. But fact is, after setting the text the problem is there, before not. I can try with AdvDisplay, just to see what happens.

I know there are some post on black screens but I haven't found my specific problem. After displaying Text from my programme in FS2004 I get black screens if I switch the view (e.g. from VC to 2d cockpit). The same routine of displaying the text in FS2002 was working fine. Any hinds on what I have to take care for especially in FS2004?

Thanks, this should help.

Hi Pete, I have a little problem by writing the reg key values to the &H8001 area. I just wonder if someone else has tried this. The key entered in the .key file is working so the problem must come from somewhere else. (I also cut&past it to get no writing errors.) The connection to FSUIPC (3.08) is working, but when I try to write the key FSUIPC refuse to write it. ("Illegal write attempt: offset F8001, size 12") Regards, Michael Garbers
