Bogus Accel. install
Posted: Sun Feb 15, 2009 2:39 pmWhen I try to install acceleration it says that I must have FSX to install it. I've had and been playing fsx for about six months, I would think that I have program.

Posted: Sun Feb 15, 2009 4:37 pmHave you installed SP1 or SP2? I believe that when those are installed, it changes the version of FSX, and Accel includes both of these, so it is looking for an unmodified FSX.exe.
If this is the case, you will probably need to uninstall FSX and start clean.
Make sure to use NickN's guides at the top of the board for the best results.

Posted: Sun Feb 15, 2009 4:55 pmIf you dont have SP2 installed then yes you can, but if you do have sp2 then it needs to be uninstalled before sp1, then install Acceleration
Reboot after each step and fly a flight.
Try that.
