VC textures becomes black after switching views (VC, Locked spot, VC)...Help!

[gaz0869]

Hi guys. I have been having this problem lately especially when i load up high density addon sceneries such Aerosoft or Orbx. Aircrafts that i use are the common payware ones like PMDG, IFLY, Captain Sim and Quality Wings. So the scenario is that after loading is completed, the VC textures becomes all black. Sometimes it loads ok but when i changed views i.e VC to locked spot to VC again - the VC textures becomes black and then it will stay that way even when i load up default sceneries. I have minimized the scenery sliders thinking its a memory issue but its still happening. I used to have OOM issues big time but since i have installed the 3gb fix, its all gone but then this issue with the black textures came up. My interest in FSX has dwindled because of the OOM issues but it has now rekindled because of the 3gb fix. But i wonder if thats the cause of the black VC textures. Below i have included my pc specs (yes i know, its a dinosaur..Hahaha) my boot.ini where i put my 3gb fix and my FSX cfg file. Hope you guys can help. Thanks.

 

My PC specs are:

 

 

AMD Athlon II X2 245 Processor

2.90 GHz, 3.28 GB of Ram

NVIDIA GeForce 9500 GT with 1024 VRam

Windows XP Professional SP3 32Bit

 

My boot.ini looks like this:

 

[boot loader]

 

timeout=3

default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS

[operating systems]

multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" noexecute=optin /fastdetect /3GB

C:\GHLDR=BOOT GHOST UTILITY

 

My FSX cfg file looks like this:
