January 26, 200818 yr I know this has been asked many times but I am having trouble finding the threads.What is the best way to have two installations of FS9 on the same PC? I have a free drive for the installation but I also want to be able to install FE, GE and AS6.5 on the new installation.The new installation will be used for a retro FS world.

Your computer will think there is no other FS9 on your computer, so the installation will proceed. After its done installing, rename the desktop shortcut you just made so it is different from the original install. Now go back and rename the original FS9 folder back to what it was before.That's it.
