Hello there,
I wonder if anyone may be able to suggest why I can't get FSX to run.

I have a newly built core 2 duo 2.13 GHz, Gigabyte GA-965P DS3 mboard, 2GB DDR2 533, 250GB mirrored SATA2 raid, 7600GT video; XP SP2, DirectX 9.0c.

It runs Quake4, 3D Mark 2006 etc pretty fast, but FSX just flashes up its starup log and disappears.

Any ideas? ❓ ❓

Thanks for any help.
(I don't suppose I have to have FS 2004 installed?)

My guess is that you wont have any problems with FSX. 👍

Thanks Creekman, but I DO have a problem. FSX starts for 1 second then disappears! 😞

Opppps Embarassed ...Didn't notice the question...Sorry Embarassed ...(This happens when you fly ,and type to Fly Away same time... 😉 )

Well since it doesn't seems that its a hardware problem probably it has to do with FSX installation.
Maybe a bad download.I cant think ,at the moment,anything more than a re-download of the Demo or a Re-installation of it.

Exactly what happens when you try to start it?
