Hi All,

I am trying to get the MCP and CDU to appear in the FS2004 window. I have
tried the FSWindow=Yes and FSWindow=On commands in the ini file but it doesn't
seem to do anything. The red status line in FS2004 says "Starting MCP
(something like that), flickers in the window then disappears. I can see it on
the desktop if I alt + TAB.

I am sure I had done it before with an older version of the software. Any
ideas?

Regards,
Steven.

Update.

The CDU disappears. I found it inside FS thought there is nothing actually
displayed, If I move the 3d and cockpit windows then click the mouse on the
spot where the CDU should be I can see it flicker on for 1/10 of a second.
It seems to be registering the mouse clicks though it is a little hard to
use that way!

I was thinking it may be a DirectX - Open GL compatibility issue.

I am trying different drivers for my ATI 9800XT but so far no change using
the previous two older sets. :-(

Regards,
Steven.
