Thanks!;-)

I am having the same issue and I followed the steps in the manual and the FAQ. When I click on my adv display option is MSFS my screen goes black and if I click somewhere in the black I get the window to show up. I resize it and sometime dock is available and sometimes it is grayed out. When i get it set up my screen is frozen meaning I cannot click on any of the button in the VC or bring up any pop up screens such as GPS. I am flying the fligh 1 172R. The rare times it gets set up or appears to be set up as soon as ATC comes on with an instruction it goes back to the green strip across the top.I have installed the latest update to RC.Thansk in advance.

What kind of graphics card do you have, and what is your anti-aliasing setting? There are some problems with nVidia cards at AA 8xS. If you are using that setting, try AA 4x.

I am using a PNY GeFprce 6800 GS 256mb card (nvidia chipset) and my anti-aliasing was already set at 4x.
