on default aircraft too?
If not, then you didn't install the gauges correctly, which could include any error in the readme files.
If so, then you may of accidentally deleted a needed file.
EDIT and are they like black boxes, or not turning on at all but working.

no it does not happen with the default aircraft that ive tried, but im not sure how to fix the installation, since i just used the .exe files to auto-install. the mfd's and guages appear, but do not function at all.

then it is how it was installed.
what I would do is create a new folder on your desktop.
Reinstall the aircraft, but this time to that location on your desktop.
Then after that manually install them
I never let auto installers do the job, because they sometimes mess up.
