Hello,
At the Museum at which I work, we used to run a very successful Hawker Hunter simulator, which taught school children on the aspects of flight and navigation on a local flight around our County. All was well for years and then this Winter, the PC has decided to throw a wobbly and not boot up. I was all for a replacement but the powers that be insisted of a repair and so with new memory (seems that was the cause of the failure), and the fitting of a SSD, the new system is up and running. Lovely.
The hard drive has been cloned to an all seeing and dancing SSD and thus when FSX is loaded up, it asks for the code. This of course doesnt work, so I presume and I believe from past efforts that the FSX servers jsut dont exist anymore and thus the sim and PC are vitually useless? The sim was one of a kind, there is no backup and so without the codes it wont run. So perhaps back to the drawing board and maybe an upgrade for this steam powered machine to one capable of running dare I say it, MS2020. This one might make a good doorstop I suppose.
Please tell me that its dead......
Cheers,
Martin
