Project Opensky never had VCs that I recall...that is why I never download their aircraft...the couple of times I did, I had to go get the
right panels somewhere else so I quit going there.

I dont run Vista, but it may have some part in the vc's not working correctly. But then again, all but maybe 2 models from Posky are made for FS9. They offer no support for FSX related issues because they didnt make the models for FSX. So, it is do-able to get them to work, but you will need to take time with it. Search the forums/web for tips on getting things to work. Id like to say there was an easy way out... but there isnt.

Well, unfortunately it does sound like its a Vista issue. I cant say for sure though since I run XP. But if you got it to run just fine on an XP machine.... its leads me to believe the issue is with Vista.

Was it the one you got here on Simv? I've got Vista, the gauges don't work on mine either.

I have Vista with FSX-Acceleration and I got the POSKY 777-200s to work with the VC.
