Falcon F-16 PFD/MFD Displays are Black

      I can't seem to get the F-16 to light up the PFD/MFD displays. I have tried turning on the switches on the right side console, and the HUD which does work (top left knob). Any help would be very much appreciated. Here is a small image of what I am seeing...

Hello Airbrakes,

If you have installed V1.20 of the Falcon X and the MFDs do not display then please un-install the Falcon, then un-install SP2 from FSX and then Re-install SP2 and then the Falcon. A corrupted SP2 installation is being known to cause this issue.

  Thanks for the info. It looks like I am running version 1.10. (filename is AS-F16_FIGHTING-FALCON_FSX_V110)

  How do I get the update? I just tried to register my product bought a few weeks back but it is not listed in the products drop down. Any help is much appreciated!

   OK, I have v 1.20 installed. how do I uninstall the Accelleration without wiping out the entire FSX install? I have many addons already working fine and don't want to do a complete reinstall of everything.

     OK, well I have been able to uninstall/reinstall Acceleration and the updated Falcon 1.20 addon. But I am still seeing the exact same thing. HUD working, all other displays black. I have checked the manual, checked the switches for what I know and still do not have an answer. Please give me more info on what to look at to get this corrected. I originally installed on another system and had the same issue. Is it possible the screens are dark and need to be turned up somewhere? Or is this a bug?  There are other posts about this problem.

Hello Airbrakes,

Un-install the Falcon Un-install Acceleration, install SP2 then the Falcon then check, if okay then re-install Acceleration.

You can download SP2 from here..

OK, I will try this in that order. If successful, will the displays appear lit from the beginning or are there switches that also need attention?

Hello Airbrakes,

If you select the 'Ready to Fly' option then everything should be up and running.

Thanks. Where is this option? Or do you mean Free Flight?
