Help with 737 FMC!

[Guest TedStriker]

Hey all!I recently got PMDG's wonderful 737 package, and am slowly working my way through the ins and outs of flying this wonderful bird... The problem I'm having however is with the FMC. It seems that whenever I push the decimal point or the 9 key, I don't get what I'm expecting in the CDU. Pushing the decimal point gives me another numeric input, and pushing the 0 button gives me an 8? It's only the very bottom buttons that don't seem to work right, the rest of my inputs correspond with the appropriate button. Can anyone help? What am I, in all my incarnate wisdom, doing wrong? Yes, I have the service pack installed...MANY thanks for any help!Ted.

If you have a wide-screen display, this is probably the cause. You have 2 options: either stretch the FMC vertically or simply click a little below buttons.Mike.

Or use a resolution that maintains a 4/3 ratio if you don't have wide screen (e.g., 1600x1200).

Thanks guys! That was indeed the problem. I guess the FMC doesn't so much like widescreen. Just gotta watch where I place the cursor. Thanks again!Ted.
