My Gauges Disappeared

Hi all! Yes I'm new and I have a problem that I have created for myself. I have added aircraft to my FS2004 as well as some repaints for the Cessna 172 Skyhawk (I love that little bird, as trying to land the jumbo-jets has humbled me to the point of realizing this is a skill and not something you can "skip ahead" of the learning curve).

Today, I D/L and installed a few repaints for this plane, and ever since I did that, I have a panel with no guages. I realize there may be more info required, and I will try to remember everything I did, if needed. Basically, I copy/pasted new textures w/ different names into the Aircraft\C172 folder and in the .cfg file I did the same for the [fltsim.xx] and changed the "xx" to the next number in sequence.

Can anyone give advice before I uninstall/re-install FS2004 to it's original state?
Thanks in advance.

JP

Hi JP. That shouldn't happen if you do it properly. The new variations are added to the existing ones. See if my walkthrough helps. http://www.simviation.com/lair/Repaint2002.htm
