Problems installing SP1 of FSX downloaded using GFWL...

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

today I got from Windows Marketplace, downloaded and installed from GFWL FSX Gold

 

All went fine until I tried to apply SP1. Whenever I try I get an error message Error 1706: no valid source could be found for.... because the patch installer can't find a cab file.

 

It looks for it here:

 

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\XLive\InstallerPath\Extract\cab8B03.tmp\content\FSX_EN\

 

but in fact all I have under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\XLive\InstallerPath\Extract\ is cabB99E.tmp

 

Any suggestions?

SP1 is included with FSX Gold.
