I am back...

Postby Flying Trucker » Sun May 14, 2017 2:14 pm

Good afternoon all... <<q

First of all thanks for the Messages in the New Message Section...much appreciated.

I did a simulated flight using three monitors on March 2nd, on March 3rd when I started up the electronic gizmo not one Monitor would come on.

Now I usually have three or four family members I can call on however they were all gone flying, C17s, C130s etc.
Guess they think that those spam cans were more important than fixing dear old dads boat anchor....(just wait until Christmas...they will all get a lump of coal in their stocking)

Called three local computer shops...not one would touch that electronic gizmo which was still a High End Machine.

Got in touch with Best Buy...

They sent it 165 miles away and had it for a month...said they couldn't find a part and it was almost impossible to find which employee was working on the problem because they sent the thing all over their shop I guess

They finally found me something and threw in a upgraded NVidia Display Adapter...GeForce GTX 960 versus the old one GTX 580
Gave me three years (if I live so long) of free customer service seven days a week from the Geek Squad.

Processor is a 3.40 gigahertz (slightly less than older machine) intel Core i7-6700...same as older machine

After a week or so of installing Pay Ware for Microsoft Flight Simulator X...Deluxe...Acceleration I guess it is time for the first simulated flight.

They put on Windows 10 again.

Will be checking out all the Screenshots I have been missing and reading what some of you have posted but for now here is the best I could do.


On the Button...ready for departure

Thanks for the replies folks...very much appreciated...

Yes reinstalling FSX and all the Pay Ware, Add Ons etc. is a time consuming chore.

New Messages is:
-Between User Control Panel and Members
-Above Board Index and Graphic Gallery and Simviation Screenshots Showcase

-Just below the Simviation LOGO

Just a quick note also:

They lost 40% of my stuff from the Old Computer but gave me an external drive with my Old Documents on it.

I found talking to three other computer shops they were more interested in the newer games and new nothing about Microsoft Flight Simulators.

I need to replace the VOR Gauge with a HSI, or Horizontal Situation Indicator which is coupled to the Autopilot...
There is a good one in the Turbo Otter and I had it in the Radial Engine Otter but now can't find the Link to ADD the HSI

Any help with that would be most appreciated... <<u
Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Good evening folks...

OK...have figured this Flight Sim Panel Studio out somewhat.

Completely forgot it would not add a gauge to the Virtual Cockpit.
