FSX works the best with a standalone video card.  You would be wise to keep your fsx.cfg settings set close to the default. 

 

I moved this to the Windows 8 forum so that you can look at some of the topics and maybe find a solution to your problem.  There are also fellow Windows 8 users here who frequent this forum and they might be able to give you the best assistance.
