I've been looking around and ran into this, does it help you.
*******************
I have an NVIDIA FX video card and cannot see the panel?
Use the 44.67 WHQL drivers or higher, if they have not been released yet on http://www.nvidia.com download them at http://www.guru3d.com

 It could be a driver issue(btw Nvidia latest is 56.72 April 2004) Are we talking default panels here?(may need a reinstall)
We need to know if its default or add on panels and then system specs please

Whoops! I forgot to tell you two things. First, the middle screens work on the 747, so the problem is only with the 777. Second, here are my system specs:
Pentium 3 - 1.4GHz
40GB Hard Drive
nVidia GeForce FX5200 128MB ( with the latest nVidia 56.72 driver )
512 MB SDRAM DIMM
Windows XP - Home Edition |

Are these the default aircraft or are they add-on ones.
Have you looked in their (the 777) folders to see if the panels have a folder.

Have they ever worked?
Have you resized the panel?or modified the 777 in any way?
I know on the 747 you can switch the monitors off but I dont know about the 777

| This is the default 777 with the default panels. Everything in this 777 is default. It has been like this ever since I got FS2004, and it's only the middle LCD panels, the other two in front of me work. I'm sure that all the 777 panel files are there in the right place. I have never modified the panel or resized it. Mabye I should expirement. I'll let you know if anything comes up. |

Have a look in your gauges folder in fs9.I can only find one dedicated gauge for the 777 (the other in the 777 is a 747 gauge)and is called Boeing777-300.gau
Its 4.25mbs in size
Have a look to make sure its there,if not see if you can extract it from disc

| Forget it! It's been 3 days and Microsoft never wrote back. Besides, I can live without those middle screens anyways. |
