FS2004 need help to run on windows 10

[AnySajmon]

I have low end pc, the only flight simulator i can run is FS2004 (FSX is crashing and is unplayable) My specs are : CPU- Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU G3900T @ 2.60GHz   2.59 GHz RAM- 4GB

My problem is that when i try to run the simulator on fullscreen (1600-900) the screen goes black and it starts flickering and blue rotating wheel appears, but, when i press alt-enter it goes windowed and everything is back to normal. Even tough, i recently reinstalled windows 10 (completely), before this, FS2004 went smooth, without any problems, i could have fullscreen for how long i wanted and the menu was functional too. Now for some reason it does not work. If anyone has any tips of fixes, i would be really glad if you would write it down bellow.

I would first try to install the latest drivers for the graphics card after completely removing the old driver. Other than that I have no quick solution to your problem.

@michaelkalinowsk Thanks for reply, i will update my drivers and later tell how it went.

Have you read the very first post on this forum that explains it all?

Check your normal screen resolution, and set the sim to the same resolution. The two resolutions must be the same.

That should do it.

Kind Regards,

He had 16bit set instead of 32bit!
