textures not loaded

Hi y'll

After I d/l 3rd party aircraft many of them do not show any or partial textures, only plain white.  I unzip correctly and pace the aircraft per instructions.
Any ideas or clues what I'm doing wrong?
Thx...

Hi Marv. I suspect you're using the SP2/Acceleration update on Vista. If you have DirectX 10 Preview enabled try turning it off.

Are you using the DX10 preview option ?
Most addons for FSX are not compatible with DX10, which require a certain texture format.

hehehe, yes it's been a while since I saw a topic with so much answers in so little time. That's almost a chat, rather than a forum

Please tell us if that fixed it.

This is the one problem with FSX I know the answer to - I think. :D
