I am probably being a complete idiot but I cannot get the two pilot displays to look anything like I see all the pictures on You tube and here. I have twiddled the two selection knobs above the screens on the captains side and I can select different views but none of them give me a full inscreen (MFD) of either a compass, Horizontal horrizon includeing speed and altitude tape, moving map, it has on it an old looking speedometer on the left side, the no2 mfd has my plane position in middle and route (which i want to take up the whole screen, and it has about a third of the 2nd mfd taken up with two dials that overlap the route (Altitude and Climb/decent.Sure this does not make sense and you probably thinking ...what a moron! but Help. I cannot post a screen shot cos i am at work and would like an answer so i can see the cockpit screens in all their glory when I get home.RegardsCol.

Have a look a the introduction pdf-document - what you see is called the EFIS/MAP layout and what you are looking for is the PFD/ND layout. You can switch between those via the setup menus in the FMC. All described neatly in the aforementioned pdf. Also a friendly reminder: you are required to sign your posts with your full name in the PMDG forums.Hope this helps.
