Are you using a tweaking program for your video card? I have an NVidia card, and have seen textures badly corrupted when a tweak setting has accidently been altered [often without me using the tweak at the time]. It has happened when scenery was installed, or the computer did not shut down normally, or when I did not let the tweak close completely before moving on to another application.Even without a 3rd party tweaker your video card settings can be upset in a similar manner, especially those relating to Mip Mapping levels, image quality, or settings relating to resolution and color rendering. I would suggest going back through all of the settings that you can adjust, to see if a slider or a value has been altered. I've gotten into the habit of writing all of the settings down so that I can find an altered one, or adjust the settings and then note the results.Hope this helps. Rick

Looks like a classic case of poor driver implementation on ATI cards yet again.Chris Ehttp://website.lineone.net/~flightsimukAvoid AGP texturing = Better Performance ;)

I had seen this problem before with my ATI Radeon 32 DDR until I installed the Catalyst drivers, then it went away. I don't recall changing anything else in my setup before then.Sorry I can't help. I will say that the newest Catalyst drivers 2.2 (6118) have worked great with my card. I have not been a big fan of their drivers, although I love the ATI cards, until the release of the Catalyst drivers.One more thing not necessarily related...disabling AGP texturing in DXDiag essentially doubled my framerates. I know that this can cause problems with some games but it seems to work great with FS2002. Yes, there's a lot of controversy about doing this but it worked for me.Wish I could help.
