hi guys, my problem is pretty much as it says, when i go to choose an aircraft i just can't see it , only black. everything else is fine, just that. i tried a reinstall but to no avail. it's been like this for a while but i haven't said anything because its not critical, just bloody annoying. any suggestions?

go into your video card options and ensure that your anti aliasing setting is no higher than 4x. This sometimes causes this problem. Also try reinstalling your video drivers

What graphics card do you have?

Try downloading the latest driver, and switch anti aliasing OFF in FS2004, but ON in your video card options
