Does the screen go crazy?

If you use Vista, try switching to the standard theme first.

FSX automatically turns to standard mode on start up ;)

When running Aero, it'll switch to Basic, but I've had problems where the screen would go crazy, and the computer would crash, giving a message of the screen drivers not being able to update or something...

But I always manually switch to Standard before booting the sim, it takes up less resources than the system switching to and from Aero.
