If I'm getting this right, your planes are falling apart in mid-air.  OK, try Alt/Enter, which is a switch to/from full to partial screen.  Same thing happens to me sometimes, the switch trick always works.

I'll try that. Btw I noticed that it had also happened to the buildings. I bet it's probably something to do with the video card. I'm going to buy one, that's what I'll do that way I can play fs2004 as well.

Thanks anyways.

Make sure you don't have any faulty or non-compatible scenery, planes, or anything.

You might first try the latest drivers for your GeForce (53.03 assuming you have XP) from the Nvidia site. I believe the 52.xx drivers have issues with DirectX 9.x.

I run both 2002 and 2004 on my GForce2, albeit; with reduced settings in 2004, but very flyable, just not a 'purrty' as it could be with a better card.

Cheers,
Dave

First of all Thanks to all of you for helping me out. I haven't encountered the problem anymore. I am going to try the newest drivers though.

That's what I do most of the times but whenever I get those messed up textures. it happens to the buildings as well sothe whole game is kinda messed up.

Should I double the RAM? I can get some crucial which is a good brand for about $70 which will probably help with performance a lot.
