Hello!
I bought the DC-10 in the recent promotion but haven't been able to get it past the first few stages of the install. I get as far as choosing which version of Flight Simulator I am installing the add-on into (FSX), the screen changes to a couple of needle gauges for a split second and then an error message pops up to say "Cannot locate the DVD-ROM - Please insert the correct DVD-ROM, select OK and restart the application". Scuppered my plans for the weekend. I've contacted Just Flight tech support and received a reply telling me to open the DVD, find the .exe file, right click on it and run as admin. I tried this using the "start.exe" in the top-level directory of the disk and also the "setup.exe" located in DC10/data/FSX. Neither option worked. I assume this is some sort of infuriating security protection on the DVD? For what it's worth, this is a 2 month old, 'clean' PC with no dodgy software or "virtual drives" installed. It's running Windows 7 X64 Home Premium and uses the standard firewall and Microsoft Essentials for security. I've contacted Just Flight tech support again but I wondered if this was a common issue and maybe there was something else I could try in the meantime. The drive is an LG Blu-Ray HD-DVD combo R/W and I've never had any issues with it. Tonight I moved my FSX installation to a different, bigger drive and had no problems with any of my other DVDs. Thanks in advance. Andy |
