Which version of Flight Simulator is it? You say this is a download?
Or does he use the original CD/DVD?

Hi Katy,
The Simulator is Microsoft flight simulator Duluxe Edition. Its not a
download, I meant to say should he remove it and put it back on. Yes he does
use the DVD.

I presume it is Flight Simulator X? Trying to un-install and
re-install might help...

I have the same problem.
The only way i get it to work is by Start - All Programs - Games -
Games Explorer, then clicking on the FSX icon.

I have a related but different problem.

I just purchased FSX Deluxe Edition, but am having difficulty installing the
program. When I insert the DVD into the DVD drive, all I see is a Readme.txt
file with the following statement, "This disc contains a "UDF" file system
and requires an operating system
that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification."

This is as far as I can get. I have checked my system with the
fsinsider.com website and it returns that my computer far surpasses the
minimum requirements to install and run the game. Can anyone help?

UDF is a file format for CD/DVDs, as I recall it has something to do with
either your CD-ROM drivers are not running correctly, or your DVD drive on
your computer is not compatible with UDF formatted DVDs.

Which OS are you running? What is the make and model of your DVD drive (go
into Device Manager and find the DVD drive, it should say the make and model
of the drive).

You should start a "new" topic when you post to usenet, even if the problem
is related that way you appear at the top of the list, instead of burried
deep in the newsgroup.

listen buddy i know how to fix it but its gonna take some brains for a non expert guy just as you mentioned in computers. You need to download a full version of PowerISO 3.8 you may be able to download off of torrents. After that you will need to re-image the files on the flight simualtor x cd/dvd. This is gonna take a while bt it works. By the way u re-image it onto another dvd so be sure u have a dvd and a dvdrw working to do this or if u dont then maybe you can save it to your computer and re-image it from there. But remember you are only suppose to be working with PowerISO 3.8. Nothing else. Addios and then tell me how it goes. I have done this and it works. It took me a while to figure it out.
