Hi all,
I am fairly new to Orbiter, and am having major problems with the MFD. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I can see the buttons arround the sides and bottom, and can click them to successfully select modes (through trial and error) and do atlantis auto-launches, etc. but the central screen isn't there. It just shows whatever is behind where it should be (e.g. stars). I have never had it visible, although I have tried various configurations of settings. I don't really know what might be relevant, so my complete current settings are as follows:
---Parameters---
Realism
Complex flight model OFF
Damage and failiure simulation ON
Limited fuel ON
Auto-refuel on pad OFF
Pertubations
All OFF
Instruments and Panels
Transparent glass cockpit MFD ON
MFD refresh [sec] 0.25
Generic MFD size 6
Panel scale 1.00
Panel scroll speed 30
Window Focus Mode
Focus follows mouse OFF
Stars
I assume aren't relevant, but will list if it may be a factor.
---Visual Effects---
Planetary Effects
All OFF
Night light level 0.50
Max. resolution level 14
General Effects
Particle Streams ON
Rest OFF
Ambient light level 10
Celestrial Sphere
Background <none>
Intensity 0.50
---Modules---
Meshdebug OFF
-
Track IR OFF
-
Custom MFD ON
Lua MFD ON
transx ON
-
Orbiter Sound ON
-
Lua Console ON
Scrift MFD ON
-
All tools and dialogs OFF
---Video---

RGB Emulation

Try stencil buffer OFF

Full screen
Screen resolution 1024 x 768
Color depth 16
Disable verticle sync. OFF

Many thanks for reading, and I look forward to responces.
Yours,

Hi Alto-kun
The power button (like all the rest of the buttons) works correctly; it turns the MFD on and off. I know this because the side buttons and SEL buttons appear and go away, but the screen doesn't.
Thanks for the suggestion anyway.

For anyone who has the same problem:
The solution was to re-install my videocard drivers and then enable the videocard in Video settings from the launchpad.

That's what I would have suggest you to try. I had the same problem, except that the MFD screen was black. I have a GeForce 6200, what graphic card do you have, I'm curious ?
