Do not know the answer to your question, but you should only have to "Disable desktop composition". What aircraft and liveries are causing the issues?

It was a bit of a funny oneIt was with the CLS A330-300I managed to install of the extra liveries i download for the -200 model, and 1 for the -300, but then i tried to install 2 more to the -300 model and they wouldnt show at all, as soon as i switched it to XP compat mode, they workedIt was Stephen Grooms US Airways A333 new repaint, and a swiss international A333 repaint that didnt work, all the extras i got for the -200 worked fine Whats this desktop connection thing?
