  1. Yes, I use ASN. But while I was checking multiple aircraft to research the failure. It was not active, and I tried different locations. But thanks for that tip. I will look further into that as well.
  2. New twist to the weirdness... I just went back and attempted to load an older saved flight, and it loaded with the doors open and fully operable. The standby FD works and I've been able to cycle through the door commands, successfully, numerous times. So apparently I can't start a new flight but might can fly an old one!
  3. Already did, Thanks a lot for your help Dan. I'll be sure to post the resolution when/if we find it. This has to be the weirdest problem I've come across to date. Monday and Tuesday, I flew this aircraft and I had no problems. Late Tuesday night, however, (on my return flight from Rio to Heathrow) I was delayed on departure due to not being able to open the doors. I initially thought it was because ground ops were automatic and I was trying to open the doors after the FO armed them all and was prepping the plan for dep. I ignored the problem and just took off anyway. During the fight is when I noticed the problem with the standby flight display, and realized something else must be wrong. All day yesterday and today have been spent trying to figure this thing out. Hopefully, with any luck, this great tech team here @PMDG will have me back up and flying in no time. I'll be sure to keep you posted.
  4. I was actually in the process of doing that. No luck! I even turned the ground operations to auto. Shut down engines and set chocks. When the T7 tried to open the doors, I did get the message from fsx saying the main exit was opening. But it didn't open. Its almost like the open command was wiped from the system. Even still the fmc command never changed.
  5. Yes. I just selected the aircraft from the selection screen and placed it at the gate. By default my panel state will load in the same condition. Engines off and gpu connected. I don't have any pre-SP1 saved panel states or flights.
  6. YES
  7. Hello All, I'm having an annoying new problem, that just arrived out of the blue. I am unable to operate any of the doors (pass or cargo) on any model (200, 300, or Freighter). I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, to no avail. I have all the latest service packs (1c in each), and there was no changes in hardware or software leading up to this problem. Also I cannot use the standby flight display. The gauge is still there, of course, but it is blank. I'm not experiencing this problem with any other PMDG addons, nor have I ever had (or heard) of anything like this before. When I cycle through the door commands on the FMC, It goes from disarm to open, but when open is selected, it does nothing. And close never appears as an option. It goes right back to ARM. For the cargo doors, the same thing. when I select open, nothing happens and close never appears. I even tried the old Shift+E, and still nothing. I don't even get the green message from FSX saying main exit opening/closing. Please help
  8. I do it all the time. and yes the windows have to be undocked in order for it to save them this way. You will have to have multiple saved games (for every different livery you fly in if you want each and every plane to react the same way). when in the aircraft you want (say at the end of your flight) with the panels in the position you want save the game. once you restart your sim and select that saved game. the panels will be there. even on multiple monitors. if you try to go into a previous game where the you haven't done this. they will not change places miraculously. as far as making them open up on multiple monitors. yes they will. just don't click the close box to make them disappear. if you want to close them just click on the panel itself to make it return to its normal position. clicking on the panel again will re-open it in the position you selected
  9. I just started having this problem as well Aaron
  10. Hello dmwalker, Thanks for the info, but where do I find the right .cfg file. I see a lot of them in the FSX folder Aaron
  11. Hello, Just finally updated to the latest version of the 777-300 (I believe 6061) and now on load up the aircraft is bouncing up and down. I really didn't think I needed an update as I only purchased the 777 on Aug. 1st, which was after the update was released. But the operations manager kept saying it was out of date. Previously I had no problems at all. Is there a quick fix, or something I did wrong that can rectify this, short of uninstalling both the 772 and 773 and reinstalling. Aaron Favors
  12. Well... I set up FSX to run as admin and all WAS well. Except for that spawns another problem!! Now that m panel states save... an even biggerproblem arose. Now My FSUIPC has disappeared from the FSX addons menu. And all of a sudden I get a pause every so many minutes in which the sim won't respond. I had FSUIPC doing a save every 10-15 min for crash recovery purposes. But the pause is more frequent than that. But even more iomportantly, I can't get to FSUIPC to stop it and see if thats the problem.
  13. Hmm... Interestingly I must not have been!! I thought I had set it up to always be ran as admin, but after checking that was the only program not set up this way!! Wow... Thanks David. I just changed it, so I'll let you know after this flight, when I can restart the system.
  14. Hello all,First of all. I have my start-up state as the NGX LONG. I hope that isn't the problem... But I can't seem to save the last panel state. For instance, last night I succesfully saved my flight while on the ground at KAUS. After preparing my next flight, I decided to call it a night. But before doing so I saved my panel state and named it "Previous" Likewise in FSX I saved the flight as "Last" (as FSX had a default file for "Previous") and I didn't want to confuse the two. Goodthing I did because when I awakened this morning my pc had mistyeriously shut down. Once I got FSX reloaded with the "Last" flight I thought every thing was fine, however, when I went to look for the "Previous" panel state it wasn't there. (even thought it SUCCESFULLY saved last night.) I've spent the whole morning trying to save panel states but the only ones the fmc will recall are the default, cld/drk, long, short. This is most annoying because I have all random failures, as well as, service based failures enabled. and every time it restarts...I'm back to square one!!! But for some odd reason. It doesn't go back to the very beginning, because when I check the failures page in the fmc. What should have went back to next service: 250 hours is only 234. Not a big problem except for the fact that I'd gotten down to 184 hrs till next service before retiring for the evening. And have yet to experience an inflight failure. And sad to say never will if the counter keeps resetting. Any one with advice...I'm all ears!!
