If you are certain the mirrors are on in the menu

then when you get into the car(cockpit view) press the 1 key on your
keyboard

That's a great tip, btw.  It happened once that I lost my mirrors and I had
no idea why.  I had inadvertently hit '1'.  I didn't even know the option
existed to turn mirrors on/off on the fly before then.

Another one that bit me was that I had accidently turned on Steering Help
(F1 key).  I thought I had a major deadzone problem until I figured that
one out.

Somebody mentioned that some nVidia drivers make the mirrors disappear.  Try
using the latest certified drivers maybe...  I'm using a Ti4600 also and
currently have 40.72 installed and mirrors seem to work fine.

PS  Has everyone made sure that they've done the high-res mirrors tweak?
Looks much better.....

There is a problem with the Nvidia drivers as I recall. Only some of
them, though. I got the game and the mirrors worked fine, and then all
of a sudden they were just "black" when looking from the***pit. If
they are enabled, but "off", they look gray and pressing the "1"
should turn them on. I had to dload the latest Nvidia drivers and now
the mirrors work fine. Odd.
