	thats strange! that cockpit almost resembles the demo version �. THey should atleast show some symbols even without doing any OH work see image below, anyhow everything looks fine on OH panel. I'm attaching few corrections try them and see if it makes any difference!

	did you upgrade from block B or something? I got 4.1 pro without any upgrade. I hope you've latest gfx card drivers, fsx SP2. I'm assuming you've tried to disable bloom effect too. How about opening a trouble ticket?

When the Battery Switch is ON and Standby Selector on the Overhead panel is in AUTO or BAT position - is the problem resolved? 2. Do you all have ailerons and elevator animation and control? 3. Is MSFS SP2 or Acceleration installed? Edit: Please answer the questions above one by one in detail.

	Hello Chris, I did had this same exact problem with my Captainsim 757. The only solution is to uninstall your Captainsim 757. You must go to my computer, C: drive, Program files then microsoft games. If using flight simulator X then you click on the "Microsoft Flight Simulator X" folder. Delete anything that has to do with captainsim. All Captainsim folders must be DELETED. Then restart your computer and try reinstalling your product. If that doesnt work then there is not much I could say. Hope it help. Dominicana1930

	No this will make no difference. Please try to uninstall 757 Captain products, reinstall (repair) MS Acceleration and install 757 products again.
