FSX disc 2 unreadable

Postby GAFlyerUK » Fri Feb 11, 2011 1:31 pm

Hello all,

When I had to restore my PC recently, I went to re-install my fsx deluxe edition, only to find that my Disc 2 has developed large circular screatches and is unreadable.

After trying many cleaning methods, I cannot even get the drive to recognise it.

I know that this may be an unreasonable request, so please tell me to go take a running jump if so, but would anyone be able to make me an iso file of the second disc so that I can get my FSX working again.

I can prove that I have a legitimate licence for this software, but it just seems a shame to buy the software again.

Mods - please don't ban me for requesting copyright software, I'm not.

Thanks for listening and hopefully someone can help..

Thanks for the tip, took it down to the local Gamestation and they did the disc cleaning for free!

Alas, it made no difference  :( so looks like its a new copy for me..

well in that case contact MS customer support and you can just get a replacement disk.

You will have to sent them your old one and i can take a couple of weeks but its still cheaper then getting a new coppy!!
