Many thanks to Stephen for sharing his "fix".Reverting to FSUIPC 3.93 (from 3.96) cured the problems I was experiencing with my PMDG radios.RegardsIanedit: I have just seen that FSUIPC 3.964 is now available. Maybe this will fix the problems experienced with 3.96. Any feed back would be appreciated.

Very many thanks Jim! You are absolutely correct............Here's how it works (in XP):Start > All Programs > Accessories > Entertainment > Sound RecorderOpen the required .wav fileEffects > Increase or Decrease volumeSave fileThe filename of the Sound Recorder utility, if you need to start it another way, is sndrec32.exeAll very simple and easy........when you know how!RegardsIan

I am surprised that NOBODY has the answer to my question!!Ian

Could someone please advise me as to how I can increase the volume of the cockpit call outs (V Speeds and RadAlt calls).In the FS9 Sound settings, I have Engines at 30, Cockpit 85 and Environment 60.In the PMDG/Sound menu, I have everything ticked and the slider at 70.With the above settings, the Call-Outs are barely audible above the engine noise and ATC chatter.Many thanksIan Oak-Rhind

Hi allFor what it is worth, I am using nvidia 191.07 drivers + nhancer 2.5.7 with a GeForce 8800 GTS 512mb and experiencing (touch wood) absolutely no problems running FS9.1 with PMDG a/c.Ian

Hi allI only fly to airports with add-on sceneries............never (or very rarely) to default MSFS airports.My question is : will these fs9.cfg Display settings adversely affect the add-on sceneries and are they really intended only for the default sceneries??Probably a very dumb question but some confirmation/advice would be appreciated. Thank you.RegardsIan

Hi allI hope I am not going off topic here and I hope this is an appropriate place to ask for help!I am using a GeForce 8800GTS 512mb with nhancer 2.5.1 and 185.85 drivers (soon to be updated to 186.08).I would be extremely grateful if some clever person out there could possibly post screen shots of their 2.5.1 nhancer control panel to show me the optimum set up for my card/driver using FS9 on WindowsXP.On the nhancer on-line HELP page, under Section 4.1.1 Anti-Aliasing, it states:Combined: NOT for GeForce 8x000 and later cardsSupersampling : NOT for GeForce 8x000 and later cardsCoverage Sample : ONLY for GeForce 8x000 and later cards.On MY 2.5.1 nhancer control panel......there is NO Coverage Sample box. In fact the AA section looks the same as the previous version of nhancer.I am thoroughly confused!Any guidance/advice will be greatly appreciated. Many thanksIanOR

Hi allIs there a chance that some clever person could Post details of how to set up nhancer 2.5.1 using the new 185 drivers ?I am presently using the earlier version of nhancer (2.4.5) with 182.50 drivers.I am reluctant to change my set-up unless someone can confirm that there will be benefits. I am on WindowsXP, FS9.1 and a GeForce 8800GTS 512.Many thanks and regardsIan

Merhaba OnurThanks for taking the trouble to reply. I will try and do what you sugest.Ian

I would be very grateful if someone could please advise me into which FS9 file I sould be putting the Des Braban sounds files. His read me file says:"copy all 11 files into the aircraft sound folder"Excuse my ignorance, but to me this could mean:1. fs9/sound or2. fs9/sound/pmdg/737NG or3. fs9/aircraft/PMDG737/sound (specific to each variant) I am pretty sure it will be one the above, but just not sure which !Many thanksIan

Hi allEvery problem that I have ever encountered with PMDG aircraft has been resolved when I select the DEFAULT MSFS flight at start up.If I try to use a saved PMDG aircraft flight............... that is when the problems arise.It can be a bore going through the process of resetting the time/date, shutting everything down on the Cessna, repositioning the a/c to the departure airfield, and finaly reslecting the PMDG a/c for the flight.If I do that EVERY time........my PMDG a/c work perfectly.Hope that might help.Ian

Very many thanks to everybody for their inputs. I am really grateful for such expert advice.I have now purchased, downloaded and successfully installed the 800/900, plus the 600/700 model update. Before doing so, I uninstalled the 747-400 and then reinstalled it again after installing the 800/900.I am now looking forward to experiencing my trusted 737-700 with all her new improvements! Some make-over!Many thanks also to George for taking the trouble to send the TCAS Tutorial. I have work to do.......746......got it now! Thanks Carl!Would that people in "real-life" were so extraordinarily helpful and so prepared to share their knowledge as they are in our Flight Sim world.Thank you.Ian

CarlAgain..........very many thanks.I have just found this same Topic on the BAV Forum and the word from PMDG was : Quote:TCAS was added as part of the PMDG 737NG 800/900 package and also adds this functionality to the PMDG 737 600/700 when installed. The original PMDG 737NG 600/700 did not have TCAS as part of the package. To activate the TCAS after upgrading, turn the selector on the Radio Management Panel Transponder to the TA/RA position and then depress the TFC button on the EFIS control panel to see the range rings.SO...it look s like I should take your advice and purchase the 800/900 package and subsequently enjoy the updated 737-600/700 with TCAS. Also, I will be carrying out the correct uninstall/reinstall procedures together with relevant product updates.Btw.....what is the 746???!! Am is missing something here??RegardsIan (BAW0501)

CarlVery many thanks for your helpful and ultra-prompt response!Are you suggesting that I can download the 800/900 software without having to actually purchase it from PMDG? If I do install the 800/900 service updates, will this convert my existing 737NG models into 800/900 variants? I am keen to retain the 737-600/700 BUT with a working TCAS.Sorry to labour the point, but I am still a bit confused here.Finally, if/when I do install either a purchased or updated 800/900 package........should I first UNINSTALL the 747-400, retain the installed 737NG, install the 800/900 and then reinstall the 747-400.Many thanks in advance for your help and advice. Maybe I could have posted this Topic on the BAV Forum?RegardsIan
