Different malfunctions of Captain Sim 767

Hello, i just buyed the 767 300 and the extended freighter package. I need to say, I am disappointed. I have several malfunctions in the aircraft.


1. Engine already running, even If I have loaded the default Cessna of the FSX before.
2. When i have done all preflight checks and the 767 is ready for taxi and I do some change in the FSX settings, the 767 is going back to cold and dark situation.

3. Inflight issue with the FMC.

Inflight Problems.After depature the FMC do not show the T/D  on the VNAV Page. Also the estimated fuel amount do not shown on FMC in the Route Info!
4. In the MCP, when I try to change the speed by clicking left or right, the indication runs up or down. It is nearly impossible to change the speed. Also at the Altimeters.
5. GSX is not working issuesless since I have installed the 767. I receive error messages from GSX.

Captain Sim 767 is installed in Admin-Mode.

I readed a Post within the forum which will reported that Captain Sim should be installed with shutted down Antivir program.
Is there someone other user of this product, who can help me out to solve this issues?   

Thank you very much in advance.

Greetings
Sascha

1. They always will until you make some changes in fltsim.flt
2. Never do any changes in FSX Fuel n Weight settings  it will mess your 767
3. It's a known issue and was discussed here. Markoz said how to fix it just search.
4. Speed dial runs too fast just get used to it.

1. Engine already running, even If I have loaded the default Cessna of the FSX before.
A. If you set up the default flight (save a flight and make it the default flight), using the C172, in a cold and dark setting with the Avionics Master switch turned ON. Once FSX starts, and you're at the Free Flight screen, you can make changes to the Current Location, Current Weather, and Current Time And Season, then click on FLY NOW!, so that the C172 loads, and its engines are not running, THEN go to the Aircraft selection, and select the CS 767.
NOTE. Making sure that the Avionics Master switch is ON, is a very important step, or the avionics won't work in the 767, as it doesn't have an Avionics switch that can be used to turn the avionics on.

2. When i have done all preflight checks and the 767 is ready for taxi and I do some change in the FSX settings, the 767 is going back to cold and dark situation.
A. As far as I can remember (seeing as I haven't done a flight in the CS 767 in quite a while), you can only change the fuel quantities without the 767 resetting itself. Using any other part of the menu ends up with the 767 resetting itself, and you will hve to start again.

3. Inflight issue with the FMC.
A. Yes. There are existing issues, and some have workarounds.

4. In the MCP, when I try to change the speed by clicking left or right, the indication runs up or down. It is nearly impossible to change the speed. Also at the Altimeters.
A. On the 3D MCP, this can happen due to the motion in the VC, but I've never had it happen on the 2D MCP, so using the 2D MCP is the way to prevent the speed setting from runing away.
Note. NEVER use the mouse wheel to change the settings, as that will cause many settings to run away on you!

5. GSX is not working issuesless since I have installed the 767. I receive error messages from GSX.
A. A long time ago, GSX used to work fine with the Captain Sim 767, however, a couple of years ago, I ran into problems with the Standalone Addon Manager, and uninstalled it. I haven't installed it again since then, and of course GSX won't work without it (or at least it didn't used to).

I ended up reinstalling GSX, and doing a flight in the CS 767-200 (FSX-SE), from KSEA to KSFO. It performed flawlessly. I had no problems at all with GSX (I even found my old GSX.cfg, that I set up years ago, and dropped it in the CS_B767-200 folder), and I didn't have any problems at all with the FMC, yet I was expecting to have some problems regarding the TD, and speed/alttude restrictions in the STAR/TRANS, because this was the biggest issue I have had with CS 767.
