2004 Microsoft Flight Simulator

I used Flight Simulator 2004 from Microsoft on my Windows 7 for several years without problem. Suddenly, the program has stopped coming after clicking on the icon.  Nothing happens.  I used the system restore to return about 2 months, then did happen when I clicked on the icon, but then the next time the program after it is is again.  Any ideas why I opened this program? Thank you.

Hello, Davis,.

Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

Thank you for details on the issue.

This problem can occur for the following reasons:

-The My Documents folder is not in the default location.
-L'installation of DirectX is corrupted or is not correctly updated.
-The NVIDIA Driver Helper Service interferes with Flight Simulator 2004.
-The configuration file is damaged, or the default settings must be changed.

I suggest you use the steps in this article and check if it helps.

    Hello

    1. which edition of Windows are you using? Is - this edition is 32-bit or 64-bit?
     
     
    Given that the game is compatible with Windows 7, I suspect that the conflict can be 32-bit or 64-bit architecture.
    The link below shows the compatibility of this game with Windows 7.
     
     
    Method 1.
    We must ensure that the edition of the game must correspond with the operating system.
    If you use 64-bit in this game, you need the 64-bit Windows to install it.
    Method 2.
    If the above information matching I you recommend to start the computer in clean condition and then try to install the game.
    See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.

  • Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 required administrator rights

    I have Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 (I know, I know) and when I try to run it from a limited account, I get an error stating that I have administrator privileges. Is it possible to replace that or enter my password once? I don't need my children asking me my password every time they want to play. It doesn't seem like it does all what changes the computer, why can't it be used in a user account only limited?

    Specifications of the computer:

    • HP (not sure of the exact model number)
    • Windows XP SP3 (fully updated)
    • AMD Athlon X 2 Dual Core 4400 + @2.19 Ghz
    • 1 GB OF RAM
    • Graphic ATI Express 200 Radon

    I don't mind enter my password once to grant access, I'm not only you have to enter it every time my kids want to play. Thank you for your help.

    This is normal.

    As a work around, follow these steps:

    1. Click on the shortcut or the name of the program file.
    2. Click Advanced, click run with different credentials, and then click OK.
    3. Start the program.
    4. When you are prompted, type an administrator user ID and password.

  • Failed to install Microsoft Flight Simulator. Will not pass the installation wizard.

    Failed to install Microsoft Flight Simulator, Version Deluxe 2010. I am running Windows 7 Ult 64 bit. The program will not install, it's an error that it cannot find the file. I tried everything, but it does not install. This is the full version of three discs.

    Following up on this question. I have install and it will go through the wizard of the insulation. Then, it will come with a large screen. He stays there and then says after 15 minutes. «Unable to launch vcredist_ * 86.exe.» I press ok and a error number "the system cannot find the path specified in 3. Press ok and then it states that the system has not changed except for... »

    I am convinced that Flight simulator is not intended to be run on a 64-bit computer that is very disappointing. I have a program which should install without all the aggravation I had to endure. If you run them 64-bit machines do not buy this product. I tried since it first came out. I feel at the moment where I get it going it will be a version dated date out. Wait until there is a version dedicated 64-bit, you will save yourself a lot of grief. I have an Asus dual core Centrino 2, 2.6 GB h. computer laptop with 4 GB memory. I install my DVD direct program. It worked when the computer is a 32-bit computer.

    What finally worked for me when I tried to install MSFSX Gold Edition has been that I copied the disc 1 FS to my office.  Then I copied the contents of the FS 2 disc and put the files in the same folder.  When're asked you if you want to replace the files with the same name on both drives say no.  It seemed to work well for me when nothing else did.

    I haven't read of anyone doing this exactly, it's my own invention/workaround bit AFAIK. Hope this works for all of you who cannot make it work otherwise.

    System:
    ASUS G50v-t
    Intel Core 2 Duo Centrino 2, 2.26 GHz
