No Aircraft reflection or shine

I'm using Win7 and FSX Acceleration. I get no aircraft shine or reflection on initial load of any aircraft: until I go to Options-Settings-Display-OK, then I get the shine back on the aircraft. I have tried all variations of graphics options with no permanent results. I changed desktop themes, no help there. It is a strange problem indeed, because I only need to open the "display" menu and "ok" back to FSX and the shine/reflection returns. I have also changed different display settings with no benefit. I have deleted and rebuilt the fsx.cfg file, still not getting a handle on this little devil of a problem.
I even upgraded my NVidia driver to 372.54, still nothing.

Anybody have any ideas?
 
I wonder if this could be an issue with Windows UAC security not allowing the changed FSX cfg file to be saved?
