I recently installed several aircraft on FS2004 and note that the instrument panel is displayed but the individual dials are blank. This appears to have affected other aircraft that I had already installed.
There are still aircraft that display full panel details and the radar and radio stacks also are OK so don't think it is a drive problem. Can anyone help me?

Download an aircraft with gauges, look at the last part of the file name and then check the ones you have to see if their names have changed.
Put one copy of the gauges (no folder) in the main gauge folder and leave another copy in with the aircraft.
Always check out the read-me that came with a download for special instructions.

Thanks Radar Man, you have been very helpful. I'll let you know the outcome.I have already "pinched" a panel from another aircraft so as to have the GPS so at least I know where I am going!!
Good idea taking one for yourself, let us know how it all works out.
