Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 :
In the "Cockpit" view the sceen is divided in two parts. In the top half, I can see the runway. The bottom half is black, no instruments are shown. When I hover the mouse pointer over the black bottom half of the screen, I see tips that are displayed regarding the (invisible) instruments.

The "Virtual Cockpit" view is OK and displays all instruments correctly.

I have done a standard FULL install of Flight Simulator. I'm using the standard airplane types, I have not added any third-party planes or maps.

I have attached some screenshots.

Do you have an FX NVIDIA card? I think there is/was a problem with those. Check the read me file in flight simulator 2004 or update your video drivers.

Yep, I have an 3D Blaster from creative with a NVIDIA FX 5600 Ultra chipset.

I'll try the upgrade and post the result here.
