December 28, 201213 yr I have recently reformatted my computer (C Drive) in NTFS format (nothing irregular with that as far as I'm aware with Windows Installations. I have heard that it is best to install Flight Simulator on another hard drive. I have added another hard drive to the computer (G Drive) and tried to install FSX, but encountered a problem. It says "you cannot install to the root of the drive" I have tried installing other games to see if there was a problem with the hard disk but they have gone on no problem. My computer is a Novatech iForce Intel Core i7 and the specs are: Intel Core i7 2600K Processor 4 x 4GB DDR3 1333Mhz Memory Intel 311 20GB 2.5" SATA 6Gb/s Solid State Hard Drive 2 x Western Digital Caviar Green Power 1TB 64MB Cache Hard Disk Drive Novatech ATX Gaming Case 22x DVD Writer NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 1536MB Graphics Card 750W Gaming PSU Gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) Motherboard
December 28, 201213 yr Moderator Well, you can't install to the "root" of any drive! Instead, install to G:\FSX or something similar and short! Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
December 28, 201213 yr Author I'll give that a try. I am installing to the default path that comes up, and it goes on C fine I think...
