Running Both FSX & FS9?

Postby vulcan750 » Tue May 01, 2007 9:33 am

Can you install and run both FSX & FS9 on the same machine without complications? Not play at the same time of course but have both versions available. Can it be done safely on a Windows XP box (or any Windows version)?

Not a problem at all, I have both installed, although I mostly use FS9.  I just have too many problems with this computer/FSX.  I'm not entirely blaming Microsoft, I just have a three year old computer.

I confirm as well. You can perfectly install FS9 and FSX, why would there be any problem ?  :-?
