Hi Dave,I tried this trick and it worked very well with unlocking the folders that you need. As far as I know it will work with all folders that are locked.Right click the folder and choose "properties".Click the "security" tab and then click "edit" and then click "add" and then click "advanced"Click "object types" and then tick "groups" and then click "ok" and then click "find now"Scroll to the bottom of the list and then highlight "Users" and then click "ok". "ok"Highlight "users" and tick the boxes for "read" and "write" (and any other permissions you want).Click "ok" "ok"Ed

FSX Installation doesn't write Registry Entries!
Hi,You might want to try this utility, "FSX registry utility" athttp://www.tweakfs.com/store/free_tools.ph...3d76c8129908191I'm not sure if this will help you or not as I don't know if it works in German. I do know that it works for English as it has repaired my registry.Good luck'Ed

notepad oops
Hi,As far as I know checking notepad permanently associates that file type with that particular application. This would be a function of XP and not FS. If you can do a system restore to a time before you made this blunder then it might be reset.Personally, I would just leave it alone as it won't hurt anything.Hope this helps.Ed

disk not seen
Hi,I had this problem years ago when my cd drive would not read some commerical cd's. The problem was the copy protection that was on the cd could not be read by some cd drives. Since your friend was able to install the game, I would rule out a bad dvd and also region specific.Can you borrow his dvd player, install in your computer and install game?Right now I use a HP dvd player/burner with no problems.Ed

Another slowdown repaired
If anyone has installed the directx sdk, I would suggest checking in dxdiag and seeing if any of the dlls are a debug version. If so, this might be slowing your computer down. I uninstalled the sdk and installed the newest version of Directx and did see an improvement on my old computer.Ed

Even *more* framerate help?
Mike,What you are doing is just unbelievable for me. I have a p4 2.4 with a ati 128 card. I was quite happy with FSX as I only fly bush.After loading your two revamped textures, I have been able to move the sliders up and still keep the same frame rates.If you keep this up I won't have to upgrade my computer.I think if all the textures were reduced as you are doing, I don't think anyone would have anything to complain about.Thank you,Ed

Some *more* help for Autogen?
Hi Mike,Excellent job; really made a difference for me. I was wondering if the other textures could be converted. I would do it myself but don't know what program to use or how to go about it.Thanks,Ed
