February 27, 201610 yr Administrators I'm not advocating this but some have gotten rid of the Black Screen by checking the DX10 box. If yours is checked, then maybe uncheck it.

February 27, 201610 yr Welcome to the forum(s). Some people seem to have had really good luck with FSX and Windows 10. Other people seem to have had a really miserable time of it. There's no way to tell (yet) which group you'll fall into. Play with it, enjoy it, and don't worry too much about that which may never occur. You can search the forum here, or just Google, to get a feel what others have experienced. In any event, should a problem arise just come back and post the problem. The guys (and gals) here can fix anything.

February 28, 201610 yr Also, make sure you have the fix - highmemfix=1 in the Graphics section of the FSX.cfg. Many forget this parameter when first installing or deleting the config and letting it rebuild. The AVSIM FSX Configuration Guide provides many useful suggestions for setting up FSX.
