Occasionally when flying these aircraft, my gauges will freeze on me.  When I click on the screen to enlarge that cluster they display correctly, but when I click them again to reduce the size they aren't fixed.  It isn't always all of them either, usually it's only one screen that freezes.  Any ideas?

You might also want to re-evaluate your set-up as well.  Ram, vid card, processor speed, etc.  Also, which panel are you using?  The full model with the VC is demanding.  Does this happen in the 2D only panel?  Vid card important as well.  You really should have no less than a radeon 9600 or a 5900 nvidia or better for best results in this plane.

It doesn't matter what panel I use.  I reinstalled FS today but I haven't had the time to play around with it yet to test it, reinstalling my addons takes a while...

Still doesn't work. I used the 2d panel version and the gauges locked up on my on final approach in bad weather. I was following the ILS glideslope and it was registering a perfect descent on centerline but when I saw that my airspeed was no longer changing, it hit me.
