February 2, 201016 yr Hi Guys & Gals,I've currently got FSX & Acceleration installed on my XP system and I really want to upgrade to W7 - some of you may have read that upgrading XP > W7 isn't possible but I can assure you it's not the case. Anyway...I was wondering what the fate of my FSX will be once the upgrade is in place. I reckon i'd probably have to re-install it but is this possible? I read somewhere that a copy of FSX can only be installed once. Is there a workaround of some sort to prevent me from spending another
February 2, 201016 yr Moderator There is no limit to you activating FSX, however after x number of times you may be required to make a toll-free call to have your activation counter reset.I've installed/reinstalled many times since FSX was in beta testing, and I've never had to call for a reset... :( Fr.

February 2, 201016 yr Well that puts my mind at ease over the FSX, just hope that the 'upgrade' goes to plan! Thanks n4gix!
February 2, 201016 yr Well that puts my mind at ease over the FSX, just hope that the 'upgrade' goes to plan! Thanks n4gix!I did a clean install of Win7 and it didn't touch FSX--didn't need to reinstall! Couldn't have been easier. :( :( Keith
