According to the post MSGAME3.CAB on CD 2 contains the gauges. If I insert that CD will I be able to reinstall the gauges without uninstalling and reinstalling the whole program, and will it overwrite any existing add-on gauges?
Thanks!

You will not need to uninstall fs9.

Save the MSGAME3.CAB to your hard drive.
Open the .cab file and copy all the files that start with: cessna_xxx, there should be about 47 of them
Paste those files into your Gauges folder in your fs9 directory.

Whether or not it will overwrite existing gauges depends on your aircraft add-ons. I doubt that any gauges will need to be overwritten -- but you never know. If you're worried, don't overwrite when prompted. Just keep the MSGAME3.CAB handy somewhere on your hard drive in case you need it again.

Should you find that some gauges are missing, do the whole procedure again but this time overwrite when prompted.

Hope I haven't confused you Hack

Thanks! That fixed the problem and eveything is back up and running! It was relatively simple to do and not confusing.
Thanks again! 🍻
