White textures in FSX!
I just downloaded FSX onto my computer; the regular one, and I downloaded FSX 1&2. I've purchased and downloaded several aircraft . They look normal in the menu window; however, when I choose a plane to fly, it comes out in a total white texture. I have other planes thta don;t do this. Also, downloaded the L-1011 yesterday and it worked fine. Today however, it had the same white texture problem. Any help on this?

Go to the graphics tab in the sim and uncheck the box that says "DX10".
Your textures will show up again.
That take care of it. Thanx, Radarman!
Thanks for letting us know it works.
Now fly and enjoy!

I was having the same problem. I tried your advice. The paints did apppear . . . BUT now I can't use FSX. It crashes everytime I start it since I unchecked DX 10. I can't even get past the Freeflight choice screen to get back in to reselect DX 10.
Got any advice? Or do I have to reload FSX?
Appreciate any help in this.
Delete the log file, the sim will build a new one.
If your textures on some aircraft are white then you don't want to have a check in DX10, that will not cause crashing.
The last add-on (probable a free aircraft) might be causing it.
Dump it and everything that came with it.
Let us know how it works out.

I'm going to try to delete the log file tomorrow. I assume the log file is in Documents folder?
It should be, but I don't use W8 or 8.1, they might be in a different spot.
Dump the last aircraft or scenery that you loaded first.

The instruction to turn off DirectX 10 had an instant positive effect. All textures returned and the app was much faster.
thanks again!

Did you go to the graphics tab in the sim and uncheck the box that says "DX10".
If that doesn't work, delete the last add-on you installed.
If that doesn't make it try deleting the FSX.cfg file, FSX will build a new one.

If you've got XP: C:\Documents and Settings\Application Data\(Your Windows User Name)\Microsoft\FSX
If you've got Vista/Win 7: C:\Users\(Your Windows User Name)\Appdata\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX
And if you have Windows 8, 8.1 or 10: Hit your Windows key + R (Or open Run from the Start menu), type %APPDATA%\Microsoft\FSX
