Pop the second FSX disk in? Open up My Computer, right click on your CD drive, click explore, and expand the three RAR files I believe it is. then just grab the 738 folder and overwrite your current one in FSX and your good to go.

You must extract the files from the correct cab, and you must know their code number... all one must do is rename the code numbered file to the right file name.

Its not easy to find files on the DVD but I have done it based on the original file size and a few other clues. Its a painful process to do.



In the future and if you have enough free space, what I do is make a complete copy/backup of the entire FSX install folder so in case that happens I use it to get the replacement file. You must make sure to do this after all the FSX updates have been installed and before any add-ons go in.

There are no RAR files they ar all MS Cab files
