Hi,

Recently I've discovered a small issue.

When I play FSX it changes the windows setting to windows basic.

When I quit the game sometimes I get a black screen with a white mouse for a few seconds & then it reloads back into windows areo.

Any ideas on how to fix this its not a major issue, just hasn't happened before.

There's new graphics drivers out for my card so might update them.

It occasionally happens to me too when I use FSX. I don't think it's anything to worry about. It's basically Windows getting its head together before it shows Aero again.

Mildly irritating, but I wouldn't lose sleep over it. Updating the graphics driver may help.
