I am not sure which forum to post this topic in, it has to do with FSX and Windows 7. I recently upgraded my computer to W7 and reinstalled FSX. My problem is that when I change to the spot view the airpalne is magnified and I cannot view the whole plane. Usually the initial time that I change to that view all is normal but when I revisit that view all of a sudden the airplane is enlarged and it apears that I am looking at it from just outside the fuselage. This never happened until this recent reinstall. I haven't noticed anything else that is not acting as it should, but I haven"t had a chance to check everything yet. Thank you

I am using the panle that came with the download: WSP SGAMD83.28Liveries. It has been such a long time since using this, that I cannot remember the start sequence.Thanks

I haven't used the SGA MD83 in quite a while, I'm looking for a checklist to get the engines started primarily. Is there such a checklist for this program?Thanks

I have both installed on one computer, but two separate drives. I typically use FS9 about 75% of the time.

I believe that I solved the fuel pump/fuel pressure issue. If anything else comes up, I'll post it.

Any suggestions to the fuel pump issue as noted in the previous post?Thanks

I also merged the Feelthere ERJ panel with the Posky model. As mentioned, I am using the cfg. anf air. files from the Feelthere product. So far I have noted the lo fuel pump pressure indicated. Any fix for this?Thanks

I will follow your procedure as posted and let you know.Thanks for the help.

I am not quite sure why it is happening, but when I attempt to align the IRS, L,R and C, the time increases rather than counting down. I have tried to chaned the time to either instant alignment or 15 seconds to align and it still reacts the same (in minutes).I have the boxed version for FSX and I am using XP.

I have this same problem, any suggestions?PMDG B747-400, boxed version for FSXXP OS

Would someone please tell me how to setup the program so that the cockpit settings are for cold and dark start? When I open the program with the exception of the tutorial, the engines are running? I want to attempt to startup cold. I couldn't find a configuration setting for this?Thanks

It appears that everything is working properly now, I had to uninstall and reinstall, then install all the updates.

Please disregard previous post, I sorted my problem out.

I have a COA livery for the PSS 777, is that what you're looking for?

How do you edit the permissions folder? Where is it? I'm having no luck getting two liveries to work, Continental and American...

Yes, I sure did remember to select CMD A. Still no luck?

Thanks, I'll let you know.

Actually my next step was to uninstall/reinstall. I was just waiting for any other suggestions.

I am puzzled by this... I have been using FS2004 for several years and am quite familiar with it. However I am new to FSX and I am trying to engage the autopilot to fly the GPS route programmed. I must be missing something because it will not engage with the GPS selected. I am using the B738 in the FSX program, I tried with the B744 and it works fine? I have the CMD button ON, it will hold the Altitude and Heading, and Speed, but when I select the NAV/GPS to the GPS position it does not intercept the route? Like I said the B744 is fine, only the B738 isn't working.Russell

Thanks for the reply John. I have tried repairing the registry, and I can now configure the flight with the proper load. I can also open FS2004 and select the proper aircraft. It also appears that the aircraft is configured properly. The PSS 777 is a JustFlight DVD version. The system still freezes when I program the CDU. The odd thing is... when I enter the data on the PERF page, it freezes when I enter the data for the last information needed before moving on to the next step. In other words, no matter what order I enter the information, ALT, COST INDEX, ZFW, or FUEL, it is always the final input that freezes the system. I have tried several orders of entering the data, and the freeze always happens when trying to enter the information for the last item needed. The whole computer freezes, sometimes I have to power off the computer and sometimes I can Ctrl-Alt-Del to restore control.I have had no issues with this program before, so I suspect it has something to do with FSX. Like I said, this is the first time using it since installing FSX. I have a couple of other add-ons for FS2004 and haven't noticed any problems, I also ahev B737 PIC, ERJ (Wilco), B757 CS, and F1 ATR. For FSX (Gold), I have PMDG B747 abd Aerosoft F16. This seems to be the only program with a problem that I have noticed at this time.Thanks for the suggestions and assistance.Russell

I wasn't sure where to post this, in the FS2004 or the PSS ForumMy computer is running on Windows XP, SP3 and I have loaded both FS 2004 and FSX. FS 2004 is loaded on my main hard drive ©, and FSX is loaded and running on an external drive (L). I have been using FS 2004 for several years without any problems. I installed FSX a couple of months ago, and until now, didn't notice any problems. For the first time since the FSX installation, I tried to use the PSS B777 program (FS2004). The system loaded ok, but when I tried to configure the load for the aircraft, the utility was not appearing and I was unable with the following message: "Cannot locate MS FS 9.0 Directory. Unable to import configuration." or words to that effect, I don't recall the exact message right now. Then I found the FSTweak on this [AVSIM] forum to address this, now I can configure the fuel and load, and open FS 9.0 with the correct aircraft, but when I try to program the FMC/CDU on the PERF page, the system freezes. It was suggested that I use the Registry Tool available from Flight One, I tired this as well, the system still responds the with the same issue (freezing).Any suggestions?Thanks, Russell

No luck...I tried the registry repair tool. The panel still freezes while programming the CDU. Any other suggestions? I appreciate the help.Thanks

Yes, I did check the website, I just wasn't sure if any updates/changes were included in the software that I purchased. Thank you for the reply.

I recently purchased and installed this program. How do I know if any updates are needed. I have the CD boxed version for FSX.Thanks
