dping,
thanks for your reply. After my original post I discovered that by clicking on the "EDIT SCENE" button the I could grab the preview image (it has a red border with a tiny rectangle in each corner) I was able to drag the image down, decreasing the large blank border and revealing the "missing portion of the game image at the top. This worked great until i decided to use the DC6, one of the aircraft that originally previewed correctly. Now the DC6 has a large black border on top and the bottom portion of the game image is missing.
So here is my solution. Under the same Profile named FSX I have created 2 Scenes, one named DC6 and one named DC3. Each has "Game Capture" as the source. Using the EDIT SCENE to expose the full game image leave a narrow blacked border at bot top and bottom. When i fly the DC3 I use the DC3 Scene, when I fly the DC6 I use the DC6 Scene.
Now for something strange.
When I right-click on the Game-Capture and then click on properties I see the check box for "Stretch image to screen. When unchecked the game image in the preview mode is expanded - no border on left or right, very small border top and bottom. When "checked" the game image is reduced in size with a large border at left, right and bottom. Seems that what i get is the reverse of what i should get
In my profile Settings/Video the Disable Aero is not checked. When I look at my config file I see DisableAero=0 so I assume O is the NO or OFF state

However, when I look at my logs it says Aero is disabled and when I analyze my logs it says Aero is disabled
