August 2, 201213 yr During flight, the VC guages disappeared and were replaced by gray panels. Some disappeared and left (transparent) openings though which blue sky and clouds were visible (very unsettling ~:) I was able to successfully complete the 5 hour flight (most of it in this condition). Screen cap attached. When I restarted FSX and reselected the same (MD11) flight the VC gauges looked normal once again. Any idea what may have caused this? I can't think of anything that I may have done to prompt it. I was running FSX in windowed mode with Flight Sim Commander running concurrently of the same PC. Other Utility / add-ons were running OK on a laptop via WideFS.

August 2, 201213 yr I can only guess you were running low on virtual memory somewhere. I've never seen this on a PMDG aircraft before.

August 6, 201213 yr My guess is that you have video card/driver issue. If you run into it again try updating the driver. Branton Turner
