I have recently purchased Pacific Fighters Version 3.0. I installed the stand-alone version on my computer which runs Windows XP. When I start the game, all the video is upside down on the screen.

Can you tell me if there may be a compatability problem with XP? Are there any updates that can help resolve this problem?

S!

Its not XP, its your video card and the game not cooperating. As has been stated by Crash_Moses, there is a fix for it.

I am curious.. why did you get Pacific Fighters and not IL2 46.. which contains Pacific Fighters and all the other pieces of the series as well. Ad it is now $19 in the U.S. Get it you wont be sorry.

If the menus are all OK, but once in plane it's messed up. Are you maybe picking a plane that is AI only?
That is what happens when you do that.
