Hey Guys,
So it seems after I find a solution to one problem, another arises. First off, i'm using Windows 7 64 bit, and my flight sim 2004 is installed to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9 Is this the correct location it should be at?
When I load up the LDS767, the moment I press OVHD or POST or FMC, it seems to lock up. It totally freezes. I've done 3 reinstalls of it and still no better. Here's where it gets interesting. If I press shift+2, after press ovhd+post+fmc, they all appear at once, but then i press shift+1 and it locks up again. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you

Not to sound Factitious Jonathan, but you should of loaded FS in its own Directory, IE: C:\Microsoft Games\ Flight Simulator 9, then you want to take control of the directory. 7 is like Vista with its security roles, A lot of the files that are in your Sim need to have Admin access, which you limit by slapping the sim in the X86 directory. Preferably if you have another Drive, you should load the sim directly on it for better performance. Less read and write scan on a dedicated drive verses the way you are set up now.

Ok, I did it. I reinstalled to C:\Microsoft Games\ Flight Simulator 9 and i'm still having the same problems with the level D 767. What can I try next?
I just did some experimenting and here is what I discovered. When I click OVHD or POST or FMC, it locks up like before. But, for example, when I press FMC and move the screen up and down (not the panel, but what you can see out the window) the fmc will appear. Really strange..
