Should I uninstall the -600 -700  .. download and reinstall the -600 -700?

Try it, yeah. Also, ensure that you're running the OC as an admin so that it can properly read the reg.

Already set to run as Admin.

 

Will do Uninstall/(virus off) / download/ reinstall /reboot now. See what happens.

No joy here...but it did install and the updated version number is showing in the Ops Center. The only issue is that the Ops Center can't read the version number, so the bar remains grey. I assume this doesn't affect functionality.

Wow, this is great news to be waking up to - never in my wildest dreams did I expect to have my entire Boeing fleet up and running in 64 bit within two months, I'd anticipated a much slower trickle.

At last the great Windows reinstall can begin!

With the expansion pack for 737 released, focus is on 747-8 now?

Same indication in the Ops Center.

Two green ok bars for P3Dv3 versions -8900 -6700.

One green bar for the -8900 one gray bar for the -6700 P3Dv4

I see the same thing in the OC for the 600/700 expansion pack.  Server isn't giving up that information I guess.  I think this is just something that needs updated in the server, I am certain that 8413 is the correct build for the NGX both base and expansion packages.

Maybe a P3D thing because I've got full Installed and Available version Info in the OC for both the 800/900 and 600/700 installed in FSX:SE. Installed and available versions shown as 1.20.8413 for both.

Ok, so what am I uninstalling and reinstalling???  I own the 744 and both NGX packages.  Thanks. Last time I did reinstall it was when the 744 and -800/900 were updated.  I'm on FSX:SE

Uninstall the 747 and the 737s. Download the new installers for them, then re-install them.

I am having a problem with the RAAS in the 747.  When I turn on the master switch then click on save settings and close it will not stay on. Every time I go to open it the master on off switch is unchecked. Am I missing something??

It's been like that from day one for me in the Queen.  Volume is set low and will not increase.  Developer says PMDG would have to fix that part.

I think I figured it out..In the FMC under aircraft equipment on pg22 Select yes where it says RASS installed.  Seems to work fine for me now.

Do we need to download RAAS separately or did it come with the aircraft?
