Hi Tom,

 

Posed that question to Aerosoft, they confirmed:-

1 Uninstall 600/70

2 Install 600/700 d/load from PMDG

3 Uninstall CDROM 800/900

4 Install CDROM 800/90

5 Patch if 600/700 display no gauges.

 

However this is not updating 800/900 to the latest sp d version

 a little misleading to say the least.

 

 

Regards

Mike

Really the aerosoft link http://support.aerosoft.com/index.php?action=show&products=630 to the NGX Box update is not the recent NGX 800/900 update?

Weird - this 5 steps of de- and installing 0f the NGX 600/700 and the NGX 800/900.

Thnx Tom

Hi,

 

according to the tutorial and introduction it IS with sp1d.

 

But after deinstalling you have to remove PMDG left over folders manually as well

This link brings you the update to: PMDG 737-800/900NGX for FSX / FSX-SE (v1.10.6461)

for the aerosoft box version - you need the serial number to download. Works fine!

I did complete deinstall, removed all folders of the NGX - then I did a clean reinstall with admin rights. Of course I had to save my VA textures and some special sounds before I trashed all old folders.

Not your original box version - only the PMDG 737-800/900NGX for FSX / FSX-SE (v1.10.6461)
