So i was trying to input a simple route from KBOS to KALB vis GDM. Entered all of my data, activated it but the exec button did not light up...so when i try to go to PROG or LEGS, nothing works...is there a beter tutorial han the Flight Management manual tha came with the plane or can someone direct me through some troubleshooing? Akso, I would love if anyone knows where you can get a start-up procedure that also has illustrations where the switches and buttons are you need to push/turn.  Thanks :(!!!

If you look just above your post on the board you will see these two both of which are very good indeed:-

But from the problems you are having with the exec key it sounds to me like something is wrong with your setup.  You are running FSX with SP2 or FSX with acceleration I hope?

Regards,

I am pretty sure I have downloaded SP2 for FSX but I am not sure about the acceleration part...can you explain?

Acceleration is an expansion pack for FSX... it doesn't matter if you don't have it for the 757, as long as you have SP2 you'll be fine.. Acceleration automatically comes with SP1 and SP2, so you don't need to download them both.

OK so i have made sure I have SP2 for FSX and uninstalled 757 and reinstalled fresh...flight computer sill does not display the Request/Send option to import the FP from FSX...also, when I click the engine display panels, they do not zoom out...something is definately wrong here  :(

So where I am at now is a complete fresh install of fsx, sdk, fsx sop1, sdk sp1a, fsx sp2, sdk sp2 and fresh install of my airplanes including the 757. Flight compuer STILL will not give me the option as it should as described in the video tutorial to open a FSX FlightPlan!!!
