• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

FSX foul up

I got a problem. I wiped out my Flight Simulator X. Then went to install a new version and I got this stupid sign that stopped all progress. Anybody got any idea what happened?

Helldiver, what did the sign/message say when the progress stopped?

I have had problems reinstalling FSX before. It can be a nightmare.

I meant to download the sign. I guess it never took. This new fangled way they have to attach stuff needs a firm mind and a steady hand.
Here it is.
 
I guess I don't have a steady hand or a firm mind. The attachment method eludes me.
What it said was "1607 Unable to installshield scripting runtime"
Now maybe this makes good sense to some nerd back at Microsoft but since I'm limited by only speaking English, it makes no sense what so ever.
