Hello All, Need some help. Just downloaded the 727 Captain and the 727 freighter Expansion model.My e-mail with the order number and download links came. I downloaded the 727 base and installed it first then the freighter all seemed well. started fsx and behold half the gauges are missing.Those that are there will not work. There is no clicks on the overhead panel . the icon that has the radio stack and other will not appear.It reminds me of the demo model.I have installed and reinstalled many times.I have shut down the firewall. Disabled the uac. Buy the way it has never asked for my order number when installing.My  computer meets or exceeds the spec requirements.I looked real good when it was installing checking the files that was being downloaded when it got close to the end. I saw copy failed.My os is Vista.I really want to fly this Plane..So please Help   Thanks for your help

you could give it a try to run FSX in administrator mode.

Where (in what folder or directory) did you originally install FSX?  I have found that putting it in the Program Files folder causes problems with installing service packs and add-ons.  I changed mine to the root directory of my C drive, and have had no issues since.
