Viper by Olsson

??? After downloading the F-16 Viper by Olsson, I am unable to get anything but a few gauges on a black screen even though the sound and position on the airport is working.  I have installed in FS 2004, and using win XP.  I've even deleted Viper and reinstalled.
What am I doing wrong, or doesn't it install in FS 04?

I had a few initial problems when I installed the Viper myself.  I believe theres another panel (stated in the read me) which includes all the necessary gauges and another panel.  
Cheers,

I also downloaded the Marciano panel with no effect.  I put it unzipped in the gauges folder.  Still confused.  >:(

I think it has something to do with needing FSUIPC.  If you don't have it, not everything on the panel will function.

As much as I hate to send someone to another site, go to AVSIM and hunt down this file:

f16pn2k2.zip

It's an FS2002 panel, but it's a good one.  Make sure you remove a gauge named C-17 GPS or it may cause FS to lockup...

Yes I do think you need FSUIPC for the radar to function.
But after installing the panel you must use the panel configuration supplied by Kirk in the F16 zip, not the one that comes with the panel itself ;)
This is where most have the problems.
