I am hoping that someone will be able to assist me. I am a long time FSX user. Having said that, I am not a computer wizard. I just like to sit and play the sim. Recently my computer crashed, so I had one built that would run the sim. I had them use the old windows 7 operating system as I heard compatibility issues with window 8. They used the old hard drives from my old computer ( I had 3). I use one drive solely for my FSX. When I installed FSX I had a lot of trouble activating it, but eventually it worked. Now here is my issue. When I open the sim, the screen with all the available aircraft shows up. Some of the default planes will not load when I choose it. For example, the Boeing 737. When I choose it, the screen is black, however I can hear it. When I close that plane, and we return to the available aircraft screen, it remains black. When I choose another aircraft, it shows as available, but the same black screen loads with sound only. When I close the sim, and restart it, the same issue presents itself. Certain planes will work fine, and others will not. I have changed the compatibility to use XP service pack 3 and to run as administrator. I have searched different forums, and even called Microsoft. I cant seem to find an answer. FS 9 runs perfectly. My computer specs are as follows:
Intel Core i5-3470. CPU @ 3.20 GHz
8.00 GB Ram
64 bit OS
Windows 7 Home premium/ Service pack 1
Radeon HD 7700 video card
I hope this enough information
Thanks in advance!!
