Hi Guys

I wonder if you can help me with a couple of problems I have.....

I've got FSX installed on a dual boot system: Win7 & WinXP. I can run FSX from either O/S as is sits on it's own drive, and both systems have it installed to the registry.

Glitch 1
The BRILLIANT little addon called 'Autothumbnail'. This has been installed via both XP & Win7 (to the same location). When I launch FSX from XP, all is well. In Win7 however, it doesn't show up in the dropdown 'addon' menu. The correct entries DO appear in both versions of the EXE.xml file.

Glitch 2
Someone here posted a great little traffic (bgl) file creating an AI sailing of the superb USS Nimitz from San Diego to San Francisco. Once again, this works fine in the XP FSX installation, but not from the Win7 installation. The file lives in the same place - as both share the same install, so I just don't understand why.

Anyone got any ideas that might help?

Thanks
