I just got F1CS2000 and it's running great on my system (P933, Geforce2 GTS)
but when I enable FSAA (3x3) while it runs great in gameplay (800x600), it
has severe problem while in the menu- the menu would dissapear and appear
and whole bunch of weird stuff.  Anyone know a solution for this.  Thanks in
advance.

There is really no solution for this.
Since nVidia enable FSAA using software, it will have to be fixed with a
driver update.
I went back to my V5 FSAA since the Geforce2 could not compare to the
quality and speed
of the V5 with FSAA on.
Plus the V5 did not have the menu problems, since it is done in hardware,
not software like the geforce2.
Most likely they may address this issue in new drivers.

This is typical of FSAA on a GeForce card, and I would be surprised if it
gets fixed anytime soon, as it's been this way through numerous driver
updates :-(

My system is almost the same as yours PIII 64 meg GeForce 2 GTS, 128meg
133SDRam, SoundBlaster Live X-Gamer, etc... And, I experience this problem
in many games, not just F1CS2k, but GPL and others too. I'm running the 7.17
Beta NVidia drivers, but had the same problem with older drivers too...

The good news is that once the game/sim starts everything is fine, it's just
the menu's....

I'm running with a Geforce2 Ultra with FSAA on and have no problems at all
in the menus.
