A message with "Failed to create render target" appears each time i'm trying to fly the 310R from FSX Steam. Any suggestion, please?

I assume this is the weather radar.
1. Can you try configuring a panel without weather radar in MVAMS and see if this error vanishes?
2. Which GPU do you have?
3. Are you running the simulator as Admin user?
4. Which Windows version are you using?

This is most often associated with an outdated video card.
Here is a handy list of DirectX11 cards: http://solidlystated.com/hardware/list- ... deo-cards/

It’s the cockpit lighting that is failing due to an inadequate video card.

I recently upgraded to a GeForce GTX 1050 Ti for this reason. The GTX 260 I had before did not provide DX11, and even the DX10 implementation was somewhat buggy and caused this error under Windows 10 (but not 7) with the standalone MV weather radar.

Thank you all! You were right! A new videocard and all works as it should!
