So I'm having issues with my FS9. I uninstalled and reinstalled it, but when attempting to launch the program, the splash screen loads, the resolution changes as if it's going to launch in full screen mode, then the resolution changes back to normal and nothing happens. Before, I've always used FS9 in Windowed Mode, but I have no idea how to have it launch in Window Mode, especially since it can't even display the main FS9 screen. Any suggestions?

Try right-clicking the FS9 icon, then Properties, then the Shortcut tab, and select "Normal window" from the drop down menu that says "Execute".

It could also be a faulty installation if it's not loading at all...

I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times with the same result. When I look at the properties area, Normal Window is already selected.

Have you tried adjusting your screen resolution? Try several resolutions, and see if you can load FS now...
