Delete your burner software, go to start/search get rid of the rest of it and reboot.
That has worked so far.

Nero or Roxio, they are the main burner softwares that come with it when you get the computer or a new burner.

By any chance, did you create a restore point prior to the installation. That way you could remove any installed files, restore and thus be rid of any registry changes. Then uninstall nero and try again.

Very odd error.

Uninstall all that it has here.

First clean your system, you may pick up a huge amount of space. I've seen a few hundred gigs on an older system of XP.

Dump your cookies cache and history if you have any left after Ccleaner.

Run this for malware.

Run the demo of this to clean your registry, do it on novice mode. It's safe.

Defrag and try to install again.

All that seems to be bothering people with the installation are other programs interfering with it.
Burner software, firewalls, anti virus anything running in the background.
After you cleaned the registry you should have a clean slate and it would have loaded.

Outside of a clean install of Windows, no programs loaded and full Windows updates I can't think of another thing...but I bet there is an easy solution that no one has found.
What kind of beta testing was done, didn't they have anything on their machines, unbelievable.

Hi folks, this is Flyboy92's dad. We also received this error upon installing.
After 4 hours on the chat with Dell to no avail, I called Microsoft. They said They were getting HUNDREDS of calls about this error and are working on a patch for it.
They state it is a totally random thing that could happen on the initial install or any time thereafter. Ours occurred after we installed a larger ramm card. The game worked fine but the multiplayer option and music disappeared. We uninstalled everything, then reinstalled and that's when the error hit. Very frustrting to say the least!
And they have no clue as to when they will have the patch available.
Flyboy is not a happy camper!! Evil or Very Mad

got the 1722 error followed by the 1603 error after uninstalling and reloading. I really look forward to flying this thing when all the bumbs in the road are straightened out. I am a little dissapointed with MS but my desire to fly simulators outweighs my irritation. I do hope they find a solution otherwise the dvd's are just coasters.

BTW, I tried several fixes found here and paid and registered so I could participate in the discussion and really appreciate having others to sound off with.

Here is another question maybe someone has experience with already, since I now can't load the software what if I buy another copy and try to load it? Will all future copies of this sim be unloadable? I bought the standard with the idea of eventually getting the deluxe as it was not available att so I will still have the deluxe eventually. I'm investing in sound card and new video card just to fly this thing. So how about it, anyone able to install a different dvd after having one stumble?

I've got the same problem, it was working fine for two days, I accidently left it running for 1 and a half hours and when I came back I was signed out f multiplayer, which is prbably becuase of the time out, and I couldn't log in again. So I restarted FSX and I got some errors, I clciked ok and FSX opened with the multiplyer button missing.

I just re-installed it then I got error 1722 and action is still rolling back.
