OK, the P-47 issue is resolved. Once I got SP2 installed the prop and black square are fixed. In the confussion of getting all my programs re-installed and working correctly after the OS change I had forgotten to re-install SP1 and SP2. Thanks for the help guys. I still have some airplanes that are not right though like F-16s with green cockpits that I can't see through. The SP2 didn't fix that. I am going to reload them and see what happens. OK, I re-installed one of the F-16s and it is still the same. In VC mode the inside of the canope is grey and can only see out where the HUD is. Does anyone know what is causing this? I also have the Arizona National Guard F-16. It looks good but I can't control the speed. Even with the throttle all the way back it wants to go fast.

Glad you finally fixed the problem. I suspected all along that installing SP2 would do the trick. Please note that it's not a cure for all display issues & might in fact cause problems with FS9 aircraft that work fine in the RTM version.

Once again, you must try to be more specific. If you give the file names or links to the pages the files are posted on someone can download them & check them out for you. A simple tweak for the canopy textures will usually fix the problem but not sure I can help with the flight dynamics.

Here are the links to 3 F-16s I am having trouble with.

This one is the Arizona National Guard F-16. This one looks and works great except It wants to take off as soon as it starts up. Even with the throttle all the way back.

This one, I can't see out of the cockpit except where the HUD is. The inside of the canope is grey. Part of the 2D panel is missing upper left where the gear light is. Also the HUD is blank, no information.

This is the Thunderbird #7, it has the same problems as the 2 seater above.

I know you probably don't have a lot of time to check these planes out and I really appreciate your help. Thanks

All these F-16s are the FS9 models by Kirk Olsson. I've tried the Arizona ANG version & don't know how to fix the flight dynamics. Someone else might be able to help there.

To fix the VC problem in other versions of the Kirk Olsson F-16 paste a copy of inglass.bmp from the Arizona Air National Guard F-16\texture folder into the Texture folders of all other variations, overwriting files when prompted. Note that some packages with multiple variations of the same aircraft will contain several Texture folders.

Alternatively you can modify inglass.bmp yourself by following my instructions in this topic. http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1313735198
Same problem different file name.
