Thank you for the help

Hi, I had that problem a long time ago, when I activate or use another apps like fshud , I lose the sound of the msfs 2020 windows. I have to click on the simulator window with my mouse to get the sound back. I do not recall how I solve it. Pierre

Thanks Dad, I completely forgot about this utility and thanks for the tip about virtual buttons. Now everything works. Pierre

Hi, I am trying to configure my 2 Thrustmaster TCA Airbus Quadrant throttles in MSFS 2024 and I cannot find what Axis are assigned to throttle 3 & 4. I have throttle 1 & 2 using L axis X for 1 and L axis Y for 2. In the control setting when I move the throttle 3 or 4 they are recognized as button and not axis. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi, I would like to know how can I get the co-pilot to report my position when in Oceanic control. The co-pilot does the first SelCal communication, but he doesn't report position after cross each oceanic waypoint. Also my comprehension is that I have to leave PF3 co-pilot mode at setting 0 , and when I tell my co-pilot "you have the radio" MCE will internally set PF3 to co-pilot mode 2. I sometime experience delayed handback to domestic control after oceanic sector , PF3 support tells me to set Co-Pilot mode to 2. Would MCE work if I set Co-pilot to 2? Pierre Nantel

Thank you Rob, I will definitely look in to this addon Pierre

Thank you Mike It seems to me that it will be harder and harder to fly with a muti-monitor setup. Having a overhead monitor to run the overhead panel seems to made sense to me, and it those replicate the reality of a cockpit layout. Pierre Nantel

Hello, Just finish my first full flight with the 777, what a wonderful plane, thanks you PMDG. I do have one question, I usually fly in the full screen mode (with VC cockpit view1) and I open the Overhead Lower Panel (view 2) in a second screen located on top of my main one, on the second view none of the Knob/Switch works, if I move the mouse over them nothing happens. But if I fly in windows mode then everything works fine. I also notice that the instrument menu doesn't offer a view of the overhead panel, nor their is a hot spot for it. I have try the MD-11, 747 and the 737ngx from PMDG and they all work find in full screen, so it is not FSX:SE that seems to be the problem. Anyone experience this issue before? Pierre Nantel

Hi Yair I honestly didn't try that setup because I use 3 monitors for the cockpit VC view and one for the overhead display on the GTX690 and I also have 2 monitors on a GTX460 for the 2D panel. But from what I say with the Nvidia setup it only recognizes 3 display connector to configure the surround and one called auxiliary port for the fourth display connector. Hope this help

Hi Everyone, Last night I found out that I was not using the must recent driver for my video card, so I loaded the newest one and I was able to configure my PC with 1 over 3 plus a fourth screen. So my problem is solved. Thanks

Hi, I am tying to configure 1 over 3 hd lcd minitor (3X Asus VE248Q) and one Accessory display using Asus VE278H. First, does it matter which connector i use for the 1 over 3, my card has 3 DVI and one mini display port. So should I connect the 3 VE248Q in the 3 DVI and the fourth screen in the mini display port? would that work? all my connection to the screen are HDMI. My second question would be: if I use the mini display port in my 1 over 3 setup (2 screens on DVI and one on mini DP) do I need a "DisplayPort to Dual-link DVI" because now I use a mini display port to HDMI converter. Finaly anyone know about a good guide to help me setting the Nvidia control panel? I am using win7 64 bits Any help would be appreciated Pierre

Thank you for this info Ben Cap, this is good new's Pierre

Hi, I currently have an ASUS P8P67 deluxe and I would like to upgrade my Graphic card from a Nvidia N480gtx 2MB with a N680 or N670 2 MB. My MOBO has 2 PCI express 2.0, do I need to go with a MOBO equiped with PCI express 3.0. Would this give me a significant increase in performance, or I should keep my current MOBO. Thanks for any advice Pierre

Thanks Word Not Allowed, It took me more then one year to fine tune my FSX setup. I also have a lots of add-ons and scenery, so I will go with a dual boot so I can isolate the two configuration. Again thanks for the great info, I will start installing now. Pierre

Thanks One last thing, do you recommend to install P3D using a dual boot setup, isolating P3D from FSX? I am planning to use the FSX to Prepar3d migration tool to install some add-on that I have. Pierre
