    Was forced to drop FS9 from my old machine 3 yrs ago when it failed. The install I had was fully customized with 3rd party scenery/meshes, aircraft etc.

    However, during the intervening years I have totally forgotten the correct installation procedures and if there are patches etc.

    Could someone please get me back up to speed on correct installation procedures/patches etc...It would be greatly appreciated, as I would like to get flying again !!! Smile

    PS:
    I have the 4 disks but the manual has long since disappeared. Does it require a serial # to install again?

    Just insert disc 1 and follow instructions - takes a while. Once everything is installed, run FS2004, it will still extract some files. Okay once everything is sweet, shut the sim down and go to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=92cf4b8c-ea69-476b-a276-618c4ab52aaf&displaylang=en
    and download and install the patch. This should really be done BEFORE you install any 3rd party add-ons. That's it, pretty straight forward.

    PS: You don't need a serial.

    Thanks for that, I had a feeling it was all pretty straightforward but just couldn't remember all this time! Just hope I can find all the registration keys for the various aircraft/scenery models I bought & downloaded!
