fsx-ms FSX Reinstall Problem

[burm 3]

I just reformatted Windows 7 on my C drive (SSD) and am trying to install fsx Gold Edition on my F drive (SSD).

I insert disc 1, click Rundvdcheck.exe and installshield wizard does its thing.

I choose More Options on the fsx setup thing, then Browse and choose my path to F Drive(F:)/FSX .

FSX is the folder I created in my F drive.

Then click Install.

The install wizard then begins removing applications.

Then as fsx starts installing it stops with an error message:

Error 1310.Error writing to file:

F:\FSX\Scenery\NAMC\texture\SaltLake_American_Towers_Im.dds.

Verify that you have access to that directory.

 

I click retry but it will not continue with installation.

Thanks for any help.

On the few occasions that I've reinstalled FSX over the years, I've experienced nothing but frustration encountering many issues similar to yours. I recently bought the Steam version which downloaded and installed without any issue.
