Hello aviation gods,I was following the queen of the skies PMDG 747-400 Type Rating Course Lesson 1 tutorial and I am stuck at the first few lines. My PFD/ND wont come to life. After I turn Standby Power selector to AUTO. My display came to life for a brief period. but after I rotate the APU START switch to ON, then START, it went dead again. I know that i am suppose to wait for a while. But I have been waiting for a long time. I can hear the APU running. I just dont have anything on my monitorsIs there anything I did wrong? I did not change any setting expect De-selecting Ground/Air Power Available as required by the tutorialany help will be appreciated. I am so anxious to fly the 747thanks
