The fleet 744 seems to not have any data in the FMC, i have checked everything I looked at the file to see if NAVdata was there and it was. I installed the recommended update from the site that was given in the CR email, installed it and still was not able to get any data in my FMC. I also uninstalled the plane and reinstalled it and everything was still the same. This is for FSX, is it just a flaw in the FSX version?

I just have a runway issue, no runways are displayed for takeoff, but that is in the fs9 version. I don't think I had that problem in the fsx version.

This is normally a permissions issue. Make sure you full rights to the entire FSX folder structure. When you load the aircraft, it gets the data from the files and does an internal read, write, wash, folder, mutilate, etc and then finally makes the data available in the cockpit. If anything blocks any part for this process you get no data.

Rob, I have checked to see if I had the adminstrator on and I was the administrator. Do you know how to disable the adminstrator issue because it still does not let me have full control over some fs files

Malcom.....so when you start up FS you are right clicking on your shortcut and selecting "Run as Administrator" ...?

I should also ask....is this VISTA/Windows 7?.....or XP?
