FSX won't START!
Hey guys i need your help! I have reinstalled fsx for like the 5th time now on my newly rebuilt computer. I have built it myself and it is an amazing gaming computer, but when i want to play fsx, i install and when i pop the cd in, it does nothing, there is a loading thing on my mouse for like 2 seconds, then nothing happens, when i first installed the game i got a splash screen for like 10 minutes then it just went away! Anyway i really need your help guys, THANKS!

FSX won't START!
Autoplay might not be set to run. Can you start FSX by going to Start
Games FSX? If so, then it installed fine and everything is fine on that end. -- Dustin Harper http://www.vistarip.com | Vista Resource & Information Page Was this helpful?

Also run the Check Disk utility. A very remote possibility is that your disk is too badly fragmented to run. The early nVidia drivers didn't perform the way the updated drivers do, though I never remember it not running at all. Your specs look real good. John

yea man thanks, bios shouldn't be an issue since its a new intel motherboard and all drivers are up to date, im gunna try to do the disk utility thing ,but I don't think it should be an issue since the game installed perfectly off the cd -- supra_guy Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com

Have you tried running it as Administrator to see if that works?
