TraineeWell, when I had XP it worked fine, then I upgraded to Vista and now I get a black screen whenever I want to fly. Even the area that shows the aircraft you've selected (360 view) is black.
Yes I tried updating my Drivers.
Yes my hardware is more than enough to handle FSX.
When I uninstalled FSX Acceleration, regular FSX worked fine. When I re-installed, same deal, black screen, however the sound works fine, I can hear myself crashing in the water.

If that's a DX 10 card there is a box.
I use ATi (2X512mb non DX 10) and the box wouldn't be in my menu.
If it's not a DX 10 card then you don't have the box either and should clean out your old drivers and try new ones.
If that won't cut it try a different resolution or try flying window or full screen.
It probably something very minor.
TraineeNot a DX card, unfortunately, the problem still persist even when I driver clean and reinstall
