Hello

I'm havinga problem, i've just set up my new pc, tried to install fs2004, ran autorun, and the setup didn't pop up, i've tried clicking on the setup.exe, having compatibility for xp, ans still didn't work

So i install all 71 updates and tried same again, still didn't work.
Any ideaS?

Right click > Run as admin?

Mine worked as soon as I popped the disk in :S

[Luke]

Nope, doesn't work <:{
FSX installs just fine

I'm gonna ring microsoft tommorow, see if they can sort it

[Luke]

turned out it was a disc error, so microsoft have sent me the whole game absoloutly free :D

[Recursion]

Awesome! :D

I might do the same ;)

What was the number? LOL

[Luke]

*****, I've fixed the disc
Now i'll have two copies xD
One from 2003, and one from 2008 lol

You'll have to on purposley sratch the disc, they do an xcopy or somit lol

I could also do with a new FS2004 disk, I can't get past disk 2 on the install :@ Whats the number you call to get a new one?

Say you get a disc error when isntalling, they'll take control of your computer (remote assitance sort of) and do an xcopy on cmd.

xcopy? lol

They copy all the files from the disc temporerily and if one fails, they say the disc is corrupt and send you a new game :P

(I dunno how it works, but it's done in command prompt lol)

K thats out of the option because I am using Windows 7 and they will try to charge me for it :P

[Luke]

ah lol
Just say you were selected as a BETA tester lool

[Decode]

Its not even at BETA yet, it was for the select few that went to the PDC. I definatly don't want to pay for Windows 7 so I will just download FS2004 when I want to play it next.

haha ;p
