A340 Professional Problem!

Oh boy! So I load the program up fpr the first time last Thursday and start
the Toronto-Chicago tutorial.
After what seemed an eternity I got to push back. Ther's a lot of 'stuff' to
look for when you don't know where it is!
I managed to take off and complete two thirds of the flight.
I had (cleverly I thought) saved at various points; push back; take off &
level flight.
I've gone back tonight to complete and..... disaster!
On the level flight there is no AP and after a few minutes I discovered
there ain't no engines either and the displays are all wrong (no waypoints,
etc)
On push back I load the flight and the panels 'go out' after a few seconds.
Help!!

This is the PSS airbus i assume.
The PSS airbus cannot save panel states like some of the newer add ons.
Once you start the flight, you are commited to finishing it. If not, just
pause it and come back to it. Check your panel load state in the panel
configuration editor.

Thanks Goran. It is the PSS Airbus.
So where does it tell you that in the 'Pilot's Manual'??!!
Another 2 hours before push back then; I suppose practice makes perfect..
