Cannot install Acceleration Expansion Pack!

I recently bought this amazing game and struggled to install the expansion pack.  The message that appears says:

"Microsoft Flight Simulator x: Acceleration requires the English version of Flight Simulator X."

How could do to solve this?  It is irritating because I obviously already have the English version of this game on my computer.

Thank you!

  • The installation of Zoo Tycoon 2 in Windows 7, now I can not install the expansion packs.

    Thanks to the person here who has posted the trick to set virtual memory to 2048, I got edition of Zoo Tycoon 2 guards running. Now that I'm trying to add expansion packs, I get the message that I did not install Zoo Tycoon first, and that I need to install it. What?

    Before using the virtual memory fix, I found here, I tried to run in XP mode, using the also found instructions here. I wonder if this is the reason why I get the error message, and if so, should I uninstall and reinstall without changing the compatibility mode?

    Running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I solved my problem by uninstalling Zookeeper Collection, replace and reset maximum memory of 2048.

    Once I thought I had installed as an administrator or as the account of my children, I have had no problem by uninstalling Zookeepers Collection and put it back. Install the expansion packs was easy after that.

    I'm going to bookmark the Zoo Tycoon Support site for later use. Thank you.
