all sorted ...i am a happy bunny now
user error....all the way
i had ticks where i shouldnt have, so corrected those and ones in FSUIPC and all worked
sorted the sound out as well... I worked from home the other week and was listening to music and I forgot I had 'tweaked' the speaker settings and looked like I over did the centre speaker and switched it off....DOH!
thanks for all the help RC working brilliantly now.
