April 15, 201412 yr Hi there, Have you backed up and deleted your fsx.cfg, so that FSX can rebuild a new and uncorrupt one?
April 15, 201412 yr Author yes already dit that nothing works repaired from cd works but later the same problem
April 15, 201412 yr Which MS OS version are you using? Are you using Windows Aero? Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW

April 15, 201412 yr "i bought a new HDD last week and now it wont work" Sounds like a hardware/computer problem to me ... Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW

You did not mention that in your first post .... I think if you have a good PC/Hardware setup with a working OS Win7 and proper permissions (administrator) ... like on your original PC setup then FSX (with all updates also installed) will install just like it did for you on your first setup.

April 15, 201412 yr Author yea but the problem is there are no problems with the instal of FSX it just do nothing when i start it up like i can show you if i send a link in your msg box
April 15, 201412 yr I seen your video. Are you using Windows Aero? Or switching from Aero to Basic? Which version of FSX do you have installed? FSX? FSX + SP1? FSX + SP1+ SP2? FSX Acceleration? What is the path (drive/folder) to FSX (like D:\ ........) e.g.? Does Windows Event viewer show any error(s) in today's log. Also, did you copy FSX from the old HD (or a backup device) to the new HD? Or did you reinstall FSX to the new HD using the original purchase CDs? Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW

Wait 30 seconds for the list to show up. scroll down the list looking for red error entries .. if seen, click on it and see what it has to say. ************* Q: Are you using Windows Aero? A: Dunnow? just using themes for layout.. We need to get help from another pilot on the forums here who knows about this .... I only use "Basic" mode. **** "A: E:\Games\FSX but thats not the problem normaly it just work fine" You mean on the OLD HD, correct? Best Regards, Vaughan Martell PP-ASEL KDTW
