No GPS screen in the VC

[NWarty]

Guys,I'm having a problem with the GPS screen not showing in the VC, i.e. plain black like it was turned off. I confirmed this after I deleted my fsx.cfg and had the aircraft started up once I hit "fly now". Confirmed that all power was on and avionics switch ticked on, GPS opened up to the 2D separate panel and was indeed powered on. Running full-screen in DX9 mode. Scratching my head here... - Blake

Did you use fspanel studio or try to manipulate it in some way? I ask because the gauge seems to have two parts-the screen, and the main body. Sounds like you have the body but no screen..

No Geof, it's the default Garmin

The power button can be tough to find, it is the button just below garmin on the top left corner.

Ricky,It's powered on, I confirmed this by hitting the clickspot on the VC to open the 2D GPS Panel. Avionics switch is on.

One thing I found with mine is that the pop up operates seperately from the panel mounted gps. I'm at a loss. I'm sure someone will chime in with an awnser!

Ricky,I did not know that the 2D was independant. That's strange. Will check it out when I get home this evening.
