Look in your panel folder for these folders and paste the directly into your main gauges folder.

That won't do it as that 777 doesn't seem to have a PFD

1. Copy the gauge B737_800.cab (you can find it in the default Boeing 737) into the panel folder of your 777

2. Open the panel.cfg file with notepad - you will see something like this near the top

[Window Titles]
Window00=Main Panel
Window01=radios
Window02=GPS
Window03=overhead
Window04=overheadLower
Window05=throttle
Window06=DSP Panel
Window07=Efis
Window08=Icons
Window09=overheadCompass
Window10=Lower Display
Window11=Mini Panel
Window12=FMC
Window13=MFD Expanded
Window14=Posky_Debug
Window15=Posky_Util
Window16=FMC_Debug

3. Add this to the end of that section

Window17=PFD

4. Now go down the panel.cfg and find the last [Window**] entry (in this case it was 16) - then add this

;/--------------------------------------------------------
;/ Full Size PFD
[Window17]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=341,341
position=6
visible=0
ident=500
gauge01=B737_800!pfd_screen, 0,0, 341,341
gauge02=B737_800!pfd, 30,27, 280,280
//--------------------------------------------------------


If you've done it properly (& I have described it properly) you should then find the PFD under Views - Instrument panel - PFD

it work
Thanks Pete so much

a small problem here
how can i view it with short cut
e.g press Shift +1 i can view the main panel
shift +3 view GPS
if i need it Shift + 7 to view PFD
how it works?
i had solve it by changing order
is there any other way to view other windows without changing order

Some aircraft have a lot of panels and each one is assigned a number such as 1 so when you press shift+1 you will see that panel. The problem is there are only 10 numbers. So if you have a panel that has a number 11 for instance the only way you can see it is to use the view method and select it.
The only other way is to change the number of some other panel that you do not use as much a good example is the Throttle Panel will say uses the number 3 so just change the sequence of the windows. so that the throttle has the 11 and the panel you want has 3 for instance.
Just make sure the panels stay in the proper order from 1 to 11 DO NOT JUMP FROM 2 TO 11.
There is a Program called FSPANEL STUDIO that makes doing this as easy as falling off a log. But it is a payware program but if you want to be able to edit gauges install new gauges or windows in any FSseries program than this is what you want to have.
Trust me a two year old can use this program it is really simple to use.
It comes as a demo so you can try before you buy.
