Thanks, I am using FSX-SE and have just done all the simconnect things. Now I have a live aeroplane! Next problem seems to be FSX crashing every time I select End Flight. for another topic I think.

I have just finished reading the Introduction and launched the 737NGX for the first time. The aircraft is cold and dark, but does not respond to any button push or click. Cannot turn batteries on for example. The 2D click spots do not appear and pressing "menu" of the FMS produces no response. Mousing over knobs produces no "hands" to turn them. I'm have relaunched it over a default aircraft with the engine running with same result. ??? Rob Stevenson

Thanks for the suggestions. Removing the .ini file did the trick. Emile, yes I could get into the CDU but there is no "engines running" option. Rob

I have had a play with the PMDG and MSFS options, including setting the start up panel state as C&D. I can't get the aircraft started now and want to go back to "engines running" on start up until I get it worked out. Any help please?
