Black aircraft selection screen....!

[gypsymoth]

In order to get rid of stuttering at major airports (FRs down to 8 from locked 22) I turned off AA in FS & set AA to 4 & AF to 16 with vertical refresh ON in my Gefore 6800 settings.   It has improve things but the aircraft selection screen has gone black.  How do I get it back, please?     I have NOT fiddled with anything else.  Promise!!

Try it in windows mode, it is a invida driver glitch.

You have to either memorize what your aircraft look like, or set your AA down one setting on your video card.

Thanks.  I've reduced AA but it's still black!      Ummm......I'm going to ask a dumb question but, what's windows mode?

It's when FS9 runs in a window instead of full screen...To try it out, once the sim loads, hit Alt+Enter...Don't freak out...To get the full screen back, just hit Alt+Enter again

That would be windowed mode.  ;)
In my case (NVida 6600GT chipset) this side effect occurs when I set anti aliasing to the maximum value (8x); any other AA value (and any AF value) does not give this problem.

I've set the card AA to 4.    I find that if I change the resolution to 1600x1024 (from the 1680x1050 I had it at) then the aircraft appear in the window!   AF is set at 8 now.   Windowed mode didn't change anything.
