How to install FSX on my new computer.

[hawkhero 11]

Hi, should I install FSX to program files or to its own folder? Any benefits installing to its own folder on the c drive? I am using win 7 on my new computer.

best bet is  to install it in its own root drive  outside of  the default location, will  avoid  those uac install issues with other  addons  etc

Best to install on another hard disk - if not, then install on a separate partition.  If you have only one hard drive, then install to the root of that - definitely not in program files.

 

Much better loading times if you can use a SSD though.
