Question about FSX installation

Postby Jaypee Dippel » Fri May 14, 2010 1:17 pm

I just bought a used FSX deluxe edition with Acceleration pack off of Amazon. I have disc 1, disc 2 and the acceleration pack disc. Can someone tell me if this package is complete cuz FS9 had 3 installation discs and a player disc.  Just like to know before I install.

It's complete. No player disc needed. After FSX Deluxe is installed, start it up briefly, shut it down and restart pc. ( I defrag at this point) Install acceleration, fire it up briefly, and restart pc. (I defrag at this point also.)

Thanks Steve, I assume the 'disc 2' is also an installation disc too, Right?

Yes, after disc 1 it will instruct you to insert disc 2. When all is installed put your discs back in the case. No need to have any discs in the disc drive to use the sim.  ;)
