Hi All
I have installed FS2004 to my windows XP system and when running the game everything seems to work except there is no ground scenery, Just clouds and a light blue nothing for the ground.
Can anyone help me fix this problem.
Thank you in advance

Hi and welcome to Simviation. I am going to ask the obvious. Did you let the scenery install the first time you ran FS9. It takes a few minutes but it has to be done. You may have to re-install FS9 and let it run it's course.

Let us know how it goes. Be sure to uninstall the old setup first. Add/Remove programs in the Control Panel

http://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?gprid=1823This is the Microsoft support link. I had the same problem. It was caused by a defective disk. If this JUST occured and you have installed FS9 times before, it's a software glitch. If this is your first attempt to get FS9 to work then you need to call them up n they'll ship you a new FS9 free of charge. Whatever it is, is unfixable because it is a corrupt World.cab file. All you need is a phone and the product ID.
