Problem Installing PMDG 474-440x

[Tiami 0]

Hello,I have recently purchased a new gaming PC with Windows 7 operating system.Although FSX has installed correctly, I'm having problems with PMDG 747-400X, in that, the Add-On will not display in the task bar at the top of the window when the simulator is running. Therefore, the aircraft control surfaces are inactive, ie; the ailerons hang down, the rudder and elevator is not working. and all the instrument panel gauges are displayed blank.Any ideas please!!!tiami

Run a repair. When FSX is started make sure you check yes when asked if you trust the PMDG dll's and gauges. Make sure UAC is turned off when you do a repair or right click on the PMDG 747 exe and click "Run as Administrator". If properly installed, your dll.xml file will be modified and you will get a message on FSX startup as to whether you trust PMDG or not.Best regards,Jim
