	Thanks-the 8600GT performs nicely for me with FS2004 and FSX.

	You have got some big problems there mate though, that quality is just terrible, I have the 8600GT and get much better quality.

	The reason for the low quality is not the Graphics card. Its a very low quality JPEG with some very nasty artificing. If you can find a program that has scalable JPEG quality your pictures will be much better. I know for a fact Serrif PhotoPlus 6.0 has this feature and is free as well as some other programs. For such a shot to come through clear i would expect it to be around the 300kb+ mark. Your shot is rather low at around 24kb. Hope this helps... steve
