Hi,
I bought a surplus IBM x335 with the intend of running FS9 off it but now that I have it setup with WIN2000, I can't seem to install FS2004 on it. Stops copying at the same file everytime.
Tried to install FS2004 on a Dual Core pc and it went thru fine.
My x335 config is;
Dual Xeon 2.4GHz
4GB Memory
36GB HDD
On-Board video card, ATI Rage XL PCI
No sound card
Any idea what I am doing wrong?
Thanks & Regards

did you check for a scratch in the cd?
No deep scratches on the cd.
I manage to use the same cd and completed the install on a core 2 pc.
Just wondering if this is because FS does not support Xeon processor. Can anyone confirm this.
Regards.
I run FS2004 on a dual 2.8GHz Xeon HP WX6000 workstation. Both work fine.

Hey b3978, I ran into the same problem, i had to change my cd-rom it was on its way out. all i can say is check your connections, make sure your set for auto run.maybe run a cleaning disk for eye?
good luck

Okay guys. Thanks for the suggestions.
I will try a different set of disks.
Steve, does you HP WX6000 have sound card installed?
on my IBM x335, FS9 prompts me that no soundcard was detected on my system when the installation started. Is this a concern??
What video card did you use on your WX6000.
Thanks.

I would look and see if its a Direct X issue, run dxdiag.exe and see whats in the log

The HP doesn't have a sound card; just onboard audio. The video card is an nVidia 7800
