Anyone any idea how to get Fsx acceleration pack to activate? I keep getting error code 1-800004005, and have been put into an amazing Microsft loop, of telephoning help line in UK, only to be redirected to product activation, who redirect me to help line ...etc......Stunning incompetence!Upon install it knocks my Fsx into demo mode!I have now uninstalled it.Anyone any ideas?RmceScotland

Hi,Install FSX and activate it.Run FSX.Install Acceleration.Run FSX and the Acceleration Activation window should run.

Jim,Many thanks.I think I had that already covered with my FSx working fine. It was Acceleration activation that failed miserably.However, I bought Wilco 737 PIC an dit had SP1 and 2 on disk, so I have managed to get the upgrades. Do you mena that acceration should be 'run' when Fsx is running?rmceScotland

Hi,No, always install stuff with FS closed.
