Looks like I'm not going to get an answer on the Tutorial so I figure it's been dropped. Never mind, I've got this thing mostly figured out now, and it's fantastic!John Cantwell

Is Tutorial #2 available?
As a new user, I found the Tutorial Flight #1 that came with the 737NGX to be very helpful. The tutorial states that there is a second tutorial (#2) to be published soon. I know there are probably more pressing things for the PMDG team to work on but is the tutorial going to be released, or if it has already has been released where can it be found?ThanksJohn CantwellAustralia

New installation - problems with PMDG menu and crashing FSX
All clear now, thank you. I appreciate the advice of all those who answered. I'm embarrassed I downloaded the old FS9 manuals incorrectly! Happy pilot once again... :) And I'll add my signature as requested in future; sorry.John CantwellAustralia

New installation - problems with PMDG menu and crashing FSX
You are absolutely correct Sir!I downloaded a whole bunch of manuals from the PMDG 737NGX site a little while ago before the final release, as a precursor to buying the aircraft---it seems they were superceded in the final production. I've just checked the Introduction manual in the 737NGX installation folder and sure enough it is markedly different form the older version I had downloaded.Thanks very much for the steer in the right direction. :)

New installation - problems with PMDG menu and crashing FSX
You mean the options such as the airline preferred colour scheme, PFD or ND or EICAS display options, FSUIPC interaction, colours, sound, etc, as described in the manual 00_TITLE_AND_MENUS_737_678900_V14.pdf which I'm looking at right now?? Also, I don't see the view switching tool as described in the manual, with the MZALFPTRC buttons to jump to the various panels. Any suggestions greatly received.

New installation - problems with PMDG menu and crashing FSX
I'm a long-term user of the excellent PMDG products. I bought the new B737NGX yesterday, which installed without a problem.However, when the aircraft loads in FSX the only PMDG menu option available (in the usual spot in the FSX menu bar) is "About PMDG" --- no options, fuel, etc. I've loaded other PMDG aircraft (B747 models) and their menus display as normal. I've tried both VC and 2D displays for the 737NG, I've done a complete uninstall and reinstall, all to no avail. The PMDG menu shows only the "About" entry. I have a brand new high-end PC which works like a dream, aand as stated above all other PMDG aircraft work just fine.Help please!JohnSorry, forgot to mention: My system is Windows & 64-bit OS, 2 x NVIDIA GeForce GPUs in SLI with current drivers.[EDIT} In a test a few minutes ago, the FSX crahing proble seems to have irend itself out for the moment.
