FSX Install Issues

It seems FSX has a lot of compatability/Installation issues judging by the posts here. Not something I've come to expect from MS. Having said that the default 747 in FS2002 gives completely the wrong throttle percentage readings in the pop-up windows which could create a problem or two.

I was close to a nervous breakdown caused by paranoia prior to my installation of FSX. Obviously having read all the doomsday posts.

Guess what? I thought about what I was gonna do before I actually did it, used old fashioned common sense and refrained from cooking my most exotic curry while I was installing.
In other words, one thing at a time.

I was almost disappointed when everything went without a hitch, taking a mere 25 minutes.

What an anticlimax
