Look at Options/Settings/Display/Graphics and if there is a checkmark in the box next to Preview Directx10 remove it.........Doug

Not sure if you aware but you have posted two other topics on this same issue. After a while we don’t hear from you if you solved it then another post starts with the same issue.

If I had to guess I’d bet that it’s the DX10 Preview as being checked.

Since I remember you as a purchaser of the DX10 Fixer which fixes the Orbx lighting black squares in DX10 preview  the problem must be either that you are running in DX10  and that the fixer isn't installed properly or you have a missing texture which DX9 hides by silently discarding the affected objects  whilst DX10 highlights the issue by showing it as black so you can actually address the root problem.  Check it out and post at the fixer support forum here if you still have an issue.  For missing textures turn on missing texture alert in the fsx.cfg - see the fixer manual for how to do this.
