FSX DVD Checker

[bucaneer]

Guy's, I seem to be having a problem with my computer trying to read my FSX discs. I have no problem with any othe source material on disc that the computer has to read. I have the latest drivers installed and the dics do not require cleaning. I have FSX Deluxe & Acceleration installed via my purchase of the FSX Gold Edition. I have only insalled the product once, but started to have problems reading the discs after installing SDK and SP1a at a later date.
I am stumped as to how I would re-install everything if requied to do so. I beleive there is some sort of dvd checker but along with

I have the Gold edition and use Win7 64bit. Installed SDK etc, with difficulty/ignorance.

Glad to hear you had some succsess. Iwill give this a go later.
I have trawled the web with no luck so far. If any new info I will post on this site, perhaps you might do the same. Thanks anyway.

More fiddling!!. I Keep an older PC with FS2004 installed. This PC has 2 DVD writers. I tested my FSX Gold discs in the 2 DVD readers and they were 'explorable'. This PC and the laptop were running XP SP3.

I can only surmise that the FSX install on our PCs or Win 7 is somehow messing up our ability to look at our FSX DVDs.

The fact that I eventually managed to read an FSX disc on my gamer PC shows that there must be some way to achieve our aim.

I will now seek inspiration from a can of Boddingtons.
