Your card came out after FSX was released, probably just misdetecting the
card.
here's a link to 8.4 catalyst drivers (released 4/16/08)
http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_ca...=xp/radeonx-xp
Try installing those, see if that helps.
If not respond here with the rest of your system specs including OS, CPU,
RAM, Audio card, mobo model, etc.
You COULD also try Omega Drivers, they are nVidia and ATi Drivers that've
been tweaked a little... Doesn't look like they've been updated recently
though. use at own risk.
