Microsoft flight simulator help!

When im downloading the game, I get up to 63% and stops. A message comes up saying "Microsoft Flight Sim 2004 has encountered a disk error while writing the leader to C/Program files/Microsoft Games / Microsoft Simulator 9/Sound/Precip/c2prec3.wav.» Make sure your hard disk is not full or the file is not currently in use"

I tried to copy the file from the disk on the record Flight sim and he said that c2prec3.wav has been used so I think that's the problem. The only thing is that I don't know where it is in use. Any ideas as soon as POSSIBLE please?

I have a Realtek HD Audio sound card.

Thank you.

What is a Windows XP or Vista machine?  I ask because this is a Support Forum for Vista.
If it is Vista, try to start in safe mode and to install the game.

What the CD any scratches nor dirt/no fluffy?

If Windows thinks that the game is installed, uninstall it and delete the installation folder and try again.
If it is a new copy of the game, take back and exchange it for a new copy.

Defragment the hard drive before attempting to reinstall again.

    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.
