March 1, 201214 yr Has anyone installed Flight into a non-default location ???I have a dedicated partition into which I have tried 4 times to install and each time when I click onPlay - I get an error message.Although the option to select an install location is available in MarketPlace and the programme isphysically installed there I can`t get the game to open.Appreciate any commentsThanksGeorge
March 1, 201214 yr Yup, mine's installed to F:Microsoft GamesMicrosoft Flight Could you give more information on the error you're getting? That will help narrow down the problem (hopefully).

March 1, 201214 yr Author Thanks Sam - just at the moment I am trying an install to the default C; location to see if the error appears.I`ll try another install to E:Microsoft Flight afterwards and post a screen shot of the errorGeorge
March 1, 201214 yr Author Hi SamSame result with Flight installed to default location. Error message reads as followsGames for Windows - LIVE failed to initialize. Another Games for Windows - LIVE title may be running, or your product installation my be corrupted. You may need to repair or reinstall Microsoft Flight (80070005)I have tried `repair` but that says it can`t find the programme so I have uninstalled and redownloaded etc etc.Hope this helps RegardsGeorge
March 1, 201214 yr I have the same error George.When I downloaded Flight from my GfW account I could install it from GfW but when I tried to repair Flight it said that repair was not available, or words to that effect.So I'll carry on enjoying FSX for the next few years

March 4, 201214 yr Bit late for this i'm sure but if you're willing to try again you COULD try doing this beforehand http://forum.avsim.net/tutorials/article/22-uninstall-flight-completely/ Sam Nicholson - UK Only just got back in to flight simming and Avsim after a year or so - pardon me whilst I find my feet again!
