Do this. I had almost exactly the same problem and I have almost the same system configuration, including a Geforce card. I almost guarantee this will fix your problem:

Had same prob, same card Here's what you do
D-click My Computer icon on the desktop
D-click on the C drive
D-click Programs Files Folder
D-click on the Directx folder and D-click on the settings folder that is in there
D-click on the Dxdiag icon.This should run the DX diagnostics utility.Click the Display tab and switch OFF the AGP support by clicking the AGP button.Then click EXIT and return to the desk top You should now be ablr to run the game.If it doesn't work for you just change it back....

Navin R. Johnson Sir, you are the MAN. I cut off the AGP support and I have been running Cfs2 with no problems now, I was able to cruise up to 20k ft over Henderson field and the scenery is beautiful. Thanks for your help, now all I need to do is figure out how to open the canopy

I had problems quite like yours, and finally I traced it down to the power supply unit. You might want to take a look at http://www.anandtech.com/showdoc.html?i=1128
