Alright, I'll just start off. So i got my new GeForce 8800 (😀) and after I installed it, you know all that stuff, a crippling virus that Windows Defender couldnt get rid of or any other virus protection i could for that matter, pretty much stopped my computer from starting up. So I did systems recover and blah blah blah and now EVERYTHING was erased, including FSX. So, too bad for me, time to reinstall. However, i lost the CD case carrying the serial number! I already went through all of the microsoft support webpages and I had nothing that could help me at all. I couldnt even find an email address to mail to them, they all were about windows vista, xp, ect. help. If anyone can point me in the right direction to start playing FSX that would be awsome.

I was gonna get FSX Acceleration, would that work? Often expansion packs have a seperate serial code.

there are programs that will find your CD key but you have the risk of getting it stolen.
