P3D Flight Plan - How to navigate?

Sorry, I did try search first. With the CS 777 I can create a FP in P3D, load it via the RTE button in the CDU and then it will fly the route in LNAV.

In the 757 I can load the FP the same way in the FMC but cannot figure out how to get the aircraft to follow the route as with the 777.

It's pretty similar to how the 777 works, tt's LNAV. Can you be more specific about what you're having trouble doing?

Thanks. Not sure how to engage LNAV on the 757.  Trying to navigate without fully programming the FMC - just activating the FS flight plan.

On the CS 777 pressing the LNAV button on the AP panel starts the plane flying the FP route uploaded to the FMC.  Pressing LNAV on the 757 doesn't do that, at least for me. Is there another step or setting required?

Can you take a screenshot of jsut after pressing LNAV and nothing happens? There could be so many issues so it's hard to diagnose.
