I had CFS1 (brilliant) lost it in house move now got CFS3, but I can't see the instruments in virtual cockpit view. All I can see is a close up gun sight and cockpit windscreen, when I pull back the view I still can't get the instruments like I could in CFS1. I am running it on a Dell inspiron 1525 lap top with vista. Deserate to get flying please, please help. Thanks All.
 
Maybe you just need to pan the view down a bit? With Scroll Lock on on your keyboard, the numberpad keys will scroll the view around, as long as Num Lock is also on.

Oh. Just noticed it's a laptop. Errrr... :redf:
 
One of the major differences between CFS1/2 and CFS3 is that CFS1/2 had the somewhat cartoon-ish instrument panel always in view (pretty much).

CFS3 gives you a choice between (1) gauges hovering in mid-air but drag-able around the screen and (2) a virtual cockpit which are a bit more immersive than the CFS2 versions.
