Thanks to those of you that have responded.
Markoz, yesterday I reinstalled FSX in C:\FSX it made no difference.
Now I am back to Prog Files x86.
I followed your advice in most recent post. I selected in FSX exe. run as Administrator. I even uninstalled 727 and redownloaded from server again. Just to cover all the bases. Even though some say not necessary, I shut down user acc. Still many gauges missing and non functional.
One thing is when I click on 727 exe, to start install box pops up stating publisher could not be verified. THis file does not have digital signiture that verifies its publisher. I just click on run. I don't know if that tells you anything. Not to many things left to do to get this baby up and running.
