Microsoft Flight Simulator X and Windows 10
I installed Windows 10 and the only program that does not work correctly is Microsoft Flight Simulator 10. I was told by Microsoft that my Intel 4400 graphics card is the problem and by Intel that they do not have a Windows 10 driver for the Intel 4400. What are the least expensive graphic cards that will run Microsoft Flight Simulator X on Windows 10?
Windows for home | Windows 10 | Gaming

I just tried flying tonight for the first time since installing Windows X, and was not able to "see" a mission (although I could hear it after several minutes). I was, however, able to do freeflight but, again, it took more time than usual to start up. I'm hoping your fix is OS-related and "universal" for all of us. THX!

2015-08-13T22:44:50+00:00 I wish you luck. I was hoping that the Microsoft tech would send me the email, telling me what scan program he used that fixed it so that I could let the community know.
All I can tell you is that I upgraded my graphic card per my first contact with Microsoft suggesting I replace my Intel 4400. I purchased from Best Buy a AMD R7 240 and used the Amazon price, and the program still did not work. I called Microsoft again and after she checked out my computer, she transferred me to another department and during the transfer the system cut me out. Finally on the third call, I got a tech that was able to solve the problem using a scan program that is part of the Windows system.
My suggestion is if you want the Microsoft Flight Simulator X program to work with Windows 10, is to call Microsoft Support (I had used the call back feature, which my calls were returned 5 hours later) and give them my case number which was 1299988518 which should tell the technician that you contact how they fixed my problem.
