Firebirdss90 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 This issue is weird non the less i don't know if it is common or not. But what I do know and I don't want to hear it is that my computer is way out of spec to run this game. Yes I can run this game I'm not to big on graphics just want a nice game to play doesn't need to be 1080p with 60 frames at 1920x1280 Specs Os: Win 10 64 bit Cpu: AMD Sempron 145 Processor Gpu: ATI Radeon hd 4200 Mem: 4gbs DDR3 ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firebirdss90 Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 I have also discovered more about my situation. I can alt-enter and all windows work perfectly but when I'm in full screen end flight or the menu bar in flight show black screen and I half to press enter to get out. This problem is very unusual to me if some one could respond that would be great Specs Os: Win 10 64 bit Cpu: AMD Sempron 145 Processor Gpu: ATI Radeon hd 4200 Mem: 4gbs DDR3 ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl anthony Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I also have the same issue when loading a flight there's a black screen and when in flight if I want to go on the big map for instance I get black screen and when I want to exit the flight black screen any help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Are you using win10 and a amd videocard as well? I've seen several people now that have issues in fsx with that combination. There is a thread in the hardware forum on flightsim.com now too. Slightly different issue, and different videocard, but amd as well.

Firebirdss90 Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Yes I am using AMD video card and win10 and now I'm recovering data from a town wide power outage Specs Os: Win 10 64 bit Cpu: AMD Sempron 145 Processor Gpu: ATI Radeon hd 4200 Mem: 4gbs DDR3 ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I say it in your specs already.:) Good of you to post those btw. I was asking carl about his specs. I don't have a amd card any more. I don't think I can help you fix it. I had one once, and those settings were very different from the way it works in nvidia menu. I was just wondering if there may be an issue with amd and Win10. I think most of the people that reported success with win10 used nvidia as well. But that's a general impression. I did not keep score. But, this black screen issue could just be a fsx problem. il88pp [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firebirdss90 Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Ah ok well it is frustrating but the only solution I have for now that I know of is to just alt-enter at the start of a flight of your gonna use menus. I have not only seen this in fsx I've seen it in a steam game also I just get pink textures when I'm playing a game after so long and the other weird thing is that windows 10 all the toolbar buttons and stuff is all messed up it doesn't display correctly and is messed up. It's tough to say it's windows 10, the AMD card, or fsx. I think it's a mix of fsx being installed on such a new os with a graphics card that can't be updated Specs Os: Win 10 64 bit Cpu: AMD Sempron 145 Processor Gpu: ATI Radeon hd 4200 Mem: 4gbs DDR3 ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 If it is the card, it may get fixed in a future driver update. Maybe look in the hardware forum thread, or search google for others with similar issues. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firebirdss90 Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 I've searched for hours and am willing to search more after my computer is done restoring. It's funny how I have a 4-5 year old desktop and I can play fsx at medium to high graphics and get 40+ frames Specs Os: Win 10 64 bit Cpu: AMD Sempron 145 Processor Gpu: ATI Radeon hd 4200 Mem: 4gbs DDR3 ram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nippa Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem. I've spent the last three hours changing drivers and settings to no avail. I guess it might be time to change to a Nvidia card but I'll wait and see if a fix comes along. FSX seems fine in windowed mode. All other games are fine Full Screen......go figure!

carl anthony Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 It was all fine till windows 10 came out all I'm doing if I want to exit or see map I'll go to windowed view then back to full screen it's annoying but at least I can still play it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Just to be clear, I only have a gut feeling about this. Based on as little as only 8 or 9 threads. No guarantee the card (brand, driver) is really the issue. And even if it is, it could soon be fixed. I also notice you each have a slightly different issue. I don't use an AMD card or Windows10 myself, maybe I shouldn't have said anything at all. I hope you all find a solution soon. il88pp. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heidelerche Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 In my PC there is a NVidia GT630 and I have the same problem. No chance to do any changes by the menu. EDIT Today I made an update to the driver (10.18.13.5382). Now it works at least in windows mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
napamule2 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 If this happened to me after installing Win 10 then I would suspect it was Win 10 (dah). Don't 'junk' your puter yet. Help is (should be) on the way. Maybe Win 10 (almost) HAS to 'assume' you have the 'latest & greatest'. So you will only get drivers in that 'category'. Anything less (MB, CPU, GPU) and you are left by the wayside (for now). It takes time before the OS controllers (chip set drivers) and video card drivers for EVERY PC setup/spec out there can be writen, then realeased (as update new version). Hang in there. Six weeks? Three months? Who knows.

nippa Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 My problem seems to be cured. Yesterday a new driver for my Radeon HD6700 card appeared in the Windows Update and apparently did nothing. More tweaking today and ensuring that the preview DX10 box is ticked brought success. Ticking that box seems essential. The other things I did was to reinstall the A2A Comanche to correct a font problem and update my GSX files. AFAIK it's back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidan117 Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I have also been having this issue, I've selected Direct X 10 preview and now my progressive taxi has disappeared and can only be scene in 'top down' view, any ideas as to a fix for this?

CptCaveman Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 You cant afaik, because progressive taxi doesnt work with dx10. At least thats what I have read around these parts. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
