No 2D cockpit on any aircraft in FSX/3 x monitor viewing problems

Featured Replies

Hi, Hope someone can help me with a problem I seem to be having with all my aircraft in FSX. Recently purchased a new dedicated flight sim system with 3x monitors from wired2fire. Fsx was preinstalled and I later added a number of PMDG aircraft. The problem is that at no time have I been able to get any of the aircraft to display the 2d cockpit. Also the cursor constantly flickers as if there is something being processed. All I can get is three black boxes along the bottom were I presume the 2d cockpit would be. My version of FSX is up to date with SP2 and I made sure the Visual Studio 2008 runtime file is working correctly by downloading it again. The VC looks great of course but it is a bit awkward trying to get the right balance of inside/outside particularly on finals doing a visual landing. On my old single screen system I could click on the ND or PFD and it would display an enlarged version of them in the corner so that I could have my primary view outside and have the instruments for reference in the corner. Unfortunately now with the 3 screen system it displays the PFD in a very narrow compressed box in the left hand screen, any ideas how to move it at all without the trouble of opening new windows? A know there is a lot but if anyone has any ideas or advice it would be greatly appreciated. Also is there any good viewing add ons for FSX like you see some of the guys make videos with in FSX. Kind RegardsStephen Smartt

You're probably better off going to the vendor of your splitting software, but I'm guessing it has to do with a panel docking issue. Try using the Shift+# commands to see if the panel windows will pop up. I have no experience in any of this deal, though, so I'm just stabbing in the dark at the moment.
