My computer went into the shop for a cooling upgrade (my Q6600 core0 was running at 93C) and a quicky overclocking. Now it runs at 50C when stressed. But when I run FSX I get a brief flash (from a fraction of second to several seconds) of blue texture on autogen, ground textures, default and custom buildings, etc. As I pan around, the textures often often flash blue again as they come back into view. This blue texture has a "Microsoft Flight Simulator X" logo on it.Further, certain textures don't load at all on some objects, and I get either transparency or a white texture.I've reverted the O/C back to below where I started, and this still occurs. So is this a hardware (graphics card/RAM) problem (in which case I'll mosey to the hardware forum) or something with FSX that has got corrupted?Jon

Merci, David. I idly checked the box at one point, and had forgotten I had done so! That shot was from Van+ V3! Lovely, isn't it? ;) Do you have time to be a beta tester?Oddly, I didn't get email notification of your reply, although I have the option checked.Jon
