I downloaded the Delta 737NG livery from the Fleet Library, but when I select the plane and go to fly, this is what I get. On my old computer (FSX w/SP1, WinXP, medium to low graphics settings) they worked fine. On my new computer (FSX w/Acceleration Pack (SP2), Vista 64, High graphics settings) it's this. Is this a known thing or am I missing a setting somewhere?

Yeah, I was hoping it needed to be cleared by the moderator. Stupid thing blocked it the first time saying it was too large, then seemed to accept it after I reduced the size by 50%. No picture displayed though. I guess DVA doesn't like pictures uploaded and would prefer linking to an off-site picture.
In a nutshell, all the graphics look great except the Delta 737NG has no livery at all and even has a "glow" to the edge giving it a ghostly appearance. All the default aircraft livery including the Acceleration Pack aircraft look fine.

I would recommend reinstalling the aircraft. Make sure it has texture files installed.

There are texture files in the appropriate folder under SimObjects. Looking there reminded me of one other difference between my old and new computers... The old one didn't have the "737NG 2007" livery and that's the one I've been trying to use. Let me check the other ones and I'll post the results here.

Are you using the DX10 preview?
Cheers!

Ayup. Is that the reason? I'll try it with the DX10 preview off.

That was the cause! Livery looks fine with DX10 preview turned off. Thanks Luke!
