Hello, is there anyone out there who still uses flight SIM 2004 a century of flight? My computer died over a year ago and I just acquired a new one and I found out that Microsoft no longer supports it. After the install it wants me to register online then sends me to the Xbox site where I can find no way to register. Customer support treats me like a fossil who wants to install an antique on a new computer. In the past I've gone through this procedure with other computers without issues, but now I am at a dead end, can anyone help me? I have Windows 10 and all I want to do is get it to work before I tear out all of my hair in frustration. Your help would be greatly appreciated

I have FS 2004 on my win 10 computer and it works just fine.

I am confuse between a jacket or a coat. It depends on the weather and the occasion. A mens vintage leather jackets is usually lighter and more casual than a coat, so it is better suited for milder weather and more casual occasions. A coat is usually heavier and more formal, so it is better suited for colder weather and more formal occasions.

If you send me a PM with your email-adress I'll send you a working copy of FS9 for WinX.

Better take this conversation private, hertzie. Simviation runs risk of being jacked up as a pirate software site. You don't just offer to send copies of copyrighted Microsoft software online. Asking for trouble no matter how helpful you're trying to be.

Thanks for warning!
