Are you installing or uninstalling. From the message you supplied here it looks like you are trying to uninstall FSX. And what is the 8 for????, I gather you are using valid disks of FSX and not some hacked version.Have you ever had FSX installed before on this system?
The default install location for FSX is C:Program Files (86) {for 64 bit os only}\Microsoft Games :?

You are not making any sense. What do you mean by normal version props???
Fsx comes two ways that I know of.
FSX standard version and FSX gold edition which includes Acceleration.What do you mean by location it is his? This is just not making any sense.

I had a hunch you were struggling with English. Can you give us your system specs. What version of windows are you using.
If you are using the standard edition of FSX once you get it installed you will need to download and install two service packs.
The Gold edition of FSX does not need the service packs as they are included
By default FSX should install on your main Hard drive which in most cases is the C drive making the default install location C:Program Files(86)/ Microsoft Games/FSX
During a install it should not be trying to read a file form your hard drive and from your original post that is what it appears to be doing.
When you installing are you running with Administrator rights IF not try that. Both Windows 7 and Windows 8 have permission problems so you have to be sure you are running using administrator rights. And you should always run this program using Administrator rights.
