Have you recently updated your video card driver  ???
If so try going back to the previous driver
If not look for a updated driver
Also try runing DXDIAG to see if you have any problems with directx. Just click on the start button then click start then type dxdiag and click go or press enter
Give it a few min. to check out your system then flip through the tabs and check the direct draw and direct play test buttons
I supect you have a faulty driver.

I'm not sure what ur getting at. However, if the a/c ur
talking about are from older versions of fs you may have
to convert the bitmaps to "extended bitmap" format.
I had to do this with a ton of a/c from fs98. Download
the program "bmp200'" the instructions are pretty well
straight forward.. The program handles bmp images as
well as "af" images. If this isn't your probllem - I'm lost.
