For some strange reason.... Roll Eyes

...

(I'm always fiddlin' around with my FS Panel studio)... Embarrassed

...

I appeared to have lost the Gauges .cab file in my default Beech Baron 58; and as many of the the FS 2004 aircraft use gauges from that Cab File, it affected some of my Aircraft, eg; incorrect readings, missing needle animations, etc... Cry

...!

Fortunately, I had a copy in my Beech Baron TC folder, so I copied it over to the Default Beech Baron 58 file...sorted... Kiss

...!

Anyway... Wink

...

Does anyone remember the useful list of various locations in the FS 2004 Installation CD where these files can be found, to re-install/re-insert them again in the FS 2004 Folder (which avoids a complete re-installation of the Flight Sim)?

Paul...

Don't argue with idiots, they drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Is this the age thing, again, Foz?
My dad had a slipped disc problem (a bit too floppy); lost a few on the operating table...
losing them can be more than just a pain in the back; suggest you hold onto them.

I love my Floppy Disks!.. Kiss

...!

With every Computer I build, I always install a Floppy drive in the Case.
I find them invaluable for storing small files, with each Disk having a description of its contents.
It saves searching through spare CD's, DVD's, and spare Hard Drives for a small, obscure, important file... Wink
