Install problems 2002+2004

I wonder if anyone can help with this problem.i have been running both sims for some time now without any problems. I have reinstalled both of them and the op[erating system several times. However my hard drive died recently and since replacing it Ive been getting this problem with both sims.
They both install ok but on starting any flight ,it tells me there is a scenery directory missing with an unusual name. when the flight starts, there is no ground textures. I've tried different drivers, changing display settings, all the usual things with no success.
System is:  Athlon 1.4 Thunderbird, MSI G4 Ti 4600, Creative Live 5.1 soundcard. 512Mg Ram  80Gb 100 ata Hard Drive. Wondering if it was the new drive causing problems I tried two others with the same results. The only differnce is the old drive was ata 66 and the new ones are ata100. Any help appreciated,
                                                     Cheers,

Do you mean running both sims at the same time?

you may have acidentally deleted a folder that it needs to run some of the scenery :(

i did this once with the scenery folder in add on scenery, it was empty so i thought it didnt do anything and then i got a warning like yours, i simply created a new folder called scenery and it was fine...

try checking on the cd's amd comparing the scenery folders on them to the ones on your computer, if you see anything missing, copy and paste it back into the scenery folder....
