MS FS2004 Help Please

Having just bought a new computer I thought that I would enter the world of virtual aviation, so bought MS Flight Sim 2004. Having just loaded it I have a problem. When I try to fly, the upper half of the screen has the scenery but the ower half is black. When I move the mouse over the black bit, boxes appear with the names of flight instruments. By pressing some of the buttons on the joystick I can change to something called 'Virtual Cockpit', but I feel that the previous screen must be incorrect. Have I done something wrong in the loading? Is it a duff CD set or is my new computer a fault?
Please keep the answers simple. I've got one or two hours on the real thing, but this virtual flying confuses me.

Many Thanks
