Things like orion/lagoon nebula are ok but things like ngc3628/ngc4945 are not showing even though they are in the default directory!!
Any ideas?

Noticed another problem...can't configure the "ocular" plugin. The symbol is there at the bottom of the screen and highlights on/off but in the plug in menu the configure button is washed out. The "angle measure" and "compass marks" also have the same problem but they actually work on screen. Note .. everything is ticked to load at start up, so it should load.
Hi Stephen
I don't know what the nebula images you got were but try these download sites:

http://sarcasmogerdes.dyndns.org/ste...mnebulae-1.zip

for the nebulae

http://sarcasmogerdes.dyndns.org/ste...-patch0106.zip

for a patch that may improve the ocular plugin

http://sarcasmogerdes.dyndns.org/ste...ds/ssystem.zip

for a large ssystem.ini with many extras

The washed out view of the configure button is probably a video problem on your display. Try setting the brightness, contrast and gamma. The proper display of nebulae also depends on these items and should be set for your screen using a grey scale stairstep.
