FSX-MS FSX Gold Edition not available on DVD any more?
IFR7700 posted a topic in MS FSX | FSX-SE Forum
I bought my FSX Gold Edition DVDs from newegg in 2011 for $28.26. I ran it on a modest machine (AMD 965 black edition). I then upgraded to a more robust machine (mainly because I kept buying high end add ons), and had no trouble reactivating FSX on my intel 3770K Ivy bridge. I recently decided to upgrade again and have collected all the parts and pieces to build a 4920K on an ASUS z97 deluxe motherboard. For some reason, it occurred to me to check on any reactivation issues, and sure enough, MS will only issue 2 activation approvals on 2 different machines. If you try to activate it a 3rd time on a third motherboard, it will not be successful. Being staunchly anti-pirate, cracking, hacking, etc. I decided to purchase FSX Gold again. It is not available from any reputable dealers that I can find. Questionable dealers are trying to sell the software for upwards of $150.00. What is going on? Is this due to Steam? This is scary, because steam can someday just stop it's FSX gaming. I like having my DVD for apacolyptic scenarios. I need some guidance. Or am I just confused about Steam? Thanks, Dennis P.S.

Hi, I'm aware that TFDi specify that Win10 is a minimum requirement to run their 717 in FSX MS. With that in mind, I'm just curious whether anyone has tried it in Win7? Did it work ok? Grateful for any response 🙂
