nVidia GTX 260 and FS9?

So far I have been unable to find drivers for the BFG GTX260 card which will allow nVidia Control Panel settings (Antialiasing especially) to have ANY effect on Flight Simulator 2004 (ACOF, FS9). No matter what settings I try (in game, forced on the GTX 260, 2x, 8x, no AA anywhere, and on and on) the image quality is always exactly the same, with "jaggies" everywhere. Turning off AA on the card AND in game also makes no difference...the image quality is exactly the same with exactly the same jaggies. This leads me to believe AA isn't working for FS9 with the GTX 260.

After much searching, and head pounding, I'm hearing none of the available drivers will allow AA in FS9.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Right about now I'm kicking myself for not sticking with ATI on my new system...never had a problem with them.

download and use nHancer - nHancer - Advanced Control Panel for nVidia Cards it'll make a huge difference and allow you to get rid of the jaggies. I had the same problem on my 280GTX until I used nHancer

Yeap nHancer, though it'll create performance cuts since its not from the game software.
