ok i also have an issue related to autopilot
lets start from the begining.....
ok i bought 757 captain because it seemed to me that it was a cool add-on for fsx. so i got it and eventualy got it on my laptop and tried to go to ibiza ils with autopilot. only thing was.. when i engauged the autopilot the plane started to rock and i thought that it was a serious problem. so a couple of months later i bought 767 captain so that i could do longhaul routes.. and when i engauged autopilot the same thing happened. i then joined thomson virtual and had a leson on the autopilot (and even the instructor was puzzled by what was going on). i then read up and downloaded 757 (as i was flying this at the time) service pack 1.4. the autopilot rocking was fixed for both aircraft. but then.. autopilot would even work. the butttons for l-nav and v-nav are unresponsive and the HDG, ALT and SPD switches were lit but the autopilot was unresponsive so i then looked for any toutorials on youtube. i followed them and worked out that i needed to align the ILS. i tried that and still it wouldnt respond and i even programed the FMC to follow the route via going to presaved flightplans but still autopilot was unresponsive. :( i realy need to get the issue fixed and the tutorials are not working for me. so i then tried selecting the autopilot HDG swich using right click which dosent work for my laptop as right clicking only brings up the options menu  (views, air traffic hide menu bar options)

ok so basicly nothing works and things just light up and dont do anything. having tried everything it looks like this chrismas will be sad (i may get rid of the add-ons). which is a shame because i realy want to do longhaul flights and i cant fly for 23 hours (manualy on fsx i screw up and the plane drifts and i dont get to my destination) please respond as soon as possibe with a soulution if not then it looks like bye bye to 757 and 767 captain this year :'( :'( :'(
