Unreadable gauge descriptors in VC

Anyone have this problem in VC? For some freeware airplanes, in VC mode if you take the mouse cursor to the altimeter or airspeed indicator, a window opens up with the current readings written therein. However, on my FSX-gold, if I point the cursor on the gauge the window opens with a bunch of illegible garbage written. How do I fix this?
Thank you,
Sid

AFAIK this happens with FS9 portovers if you have SP2/Acceleration. I think the problem does not appear if you run FSX in Windowed mode, but I could be wrong! Worth trying though.

What is windowed mode?

Hi, Thanks for your reply, but did'nt get the windowed mode bit. Can you please explain?

When you are in FSX, pressing key combination Alt - Enter switches FSX from full screen to Windowed mode or vice versa. In windowed mode you see the familiar MS Windows border around FSX with the "X" button in the upper right corner.
 
Alternatively, at night, with the aircraft lights turned on, the text is legible. For some reason, the way textures are rendered during day time, the text is garbage with FS9 port overs under SP2.
