I can take-off, fly around and land ok, but when i go to outside view all i can see is the beacons, strobes and nav lights, oh and the sounds are great. 2d cockpit is fine (I guess it uses the default 737 one) but i have no 3d panel. Anyone got any ideas what the problem could be.

I don't know what you have got of where you got it but it does not sound like the 757 Freemium which you must download via your account. If not downloaded correctly what you see is what you get.

Of coarse this applies to your purchased liveries also.

BTW, this model has it's own 2D panel nothing like the default FSX B738.

Sorted. The problem was that after loading MSFS onto a new machine I had forgotten all about the SP1 and SP2 service packs Embarrassed.

I have the same problem that AlanJ had.  Do you have any suggestions on the best way to get the product into FSX?  I downloaded the product from the Just Flight web page to my FSX directory; (D:\FSX).  Should I have loaded it into my FSX\Aircraft directory?

Hi, run the automatic installer and let it place the files in the correct locations itself.

RAS, I deleted the previous download but when I downloaded the file again I noticed that even though I directed that it place the download in my D:\FSX Folder that it placed some of the files on my C drive.  I could not ascertain which folders that other files got sent to.  I purchased the A318 last week and that download to my FSX drive withour any problems.  Any hints on what could be wrong?
 
Thanks.

Where ever you place FSX, some files have to be written to the 'C' drive.

If you have not found the solution already, many more-detailed models for FSX require the SP1 or SP2 updates from Microsoft.com, or the Acceleration expansion pack if you do not have that already.  I recall someone asking this close to a week ago on a YouTube video concerning the freemium and I gave that solution and it turned out to work.
