You could try renaming your 208 folder and running the repair option from the installation disks. Otherwise I don't know what could be causing your problem, my 208 seems to be okay.

Thanks HM for the reply and advice. Re-installed FSX a few times in the past and the "corruption" always been there. I've learnt to live with it, but this morning it just got my "tail up" and decided to post here with the hope that maybe someone else experience the same. My suspicion is that it could be a Nvidia thing, not sure. Not a big issue and my quick fix is - switch on/off the panel lights and it goes away - but comes back after a while .. :( Have a great weekend .. "off to watch the Boks playing the Aussies - Tri Nations Rugby game in Cape Town .. :(

Is there a way to get rid of the blindly bright panel back lighting and just have the gauges lit in the default c208?

Of course, it's simply a matter of loading all four of the c208b_n_night_C.dds textures in Photoshop and reducing the brightness level...
