In a real pickle here!...finally have FSX running well ,installed and 'tweeked' a new 'stick' and finally my FSX-Acceleration came in the mail today but..........Can't get past the first installation box!!!...keeps saying "must have English version of FSX installed" I DO!! Only 'glich' that my FSX install has is that when it opens . . the title screen shows the FS-9 DC-3 Cover (?) but otherwise FSX works fine. Any takes on what the problem with my attempts at FSX-Acc install might be??? Am so itching to fly the Gloster Meteor which is why I ordered FSX-Accel in the first place but am now stymied. Any help appreciated.

acceleration must be installed over a clean, unaltered version of FSX - what they call RTM version...

you can have no addons atall and no tweaks to the .cfg
 
Double edged sword here!

Thanks for that bit of info 'Haywoood'...double-edged-sword ..'cause it sounds like I'll have to back-track and remove add-ons etc. For me that could prove a real disaster.....not very good at the 'File-Thingy" which is why FS-9 screen comes up for my FS-X (Ha!)
Will sit on this for awhile an try to build up some courage to attempt a re-install of FSX!

SOH!.where to go.. for people in the know!!

Well, I took a day off to clear the cobwebs before tackling a possible re-install of FS-X .
Thought I'd start with the easiest possibility ...the Flight1's registry repair tool.

Whowzer!!..it worked first shot! two quick 'klicks' and the faulty-flie was corrected.
My FS Acceleration loaded smoothly and have now spent a few hours joyfully toolin' around in the AW Meter (NF) and the Gloster Meteor F-8. Thanks for the help from 'Heywood' and 'BASys' Goes to show..that whenever you need help, SOH is always a good place to go, to get the people in the know.

Thanks again!
