    Just curious how SP1 has effected us builders.

    I haven't had the opportunity to install SP1, if anyone has upgraded to SP1 I certainly would like to hear how it's working for you in anyway.

    FSX bummer

    It says it will take care of installation problems.

    Well, my official FSX DVD won't run at all on a one-year-old PC with XP.
    So I hope this will solve it. Paid 80 Euro's for nothing. Some have suggested that I build an old DVD player into my new machine as FSX has problems with the newer DVD players.

    Let you know if the SP1 worked.

    Thumbs up

    I had a moments trouble with getting disk 1 to read in the DVD player but after cleaning the player it ran fine. SP1 gives a massive performance boost and makes FSX well worth every penny I paid. Now I have a reason to start shopping for new hardware to run it on. I'm looking at a nice quad core machine...

    I've still not quite got fsuipc settled down yet post sp1. There seem to be more offsets in the drop down list. Other than that and a full reinstall of FSX itself fairly painless. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

    Microsoft FSX Got it!!!

    I have Nero 6.6 OEM on it and I removed InCD using the removal tool.
    Next thing I knew FSX was installing right away.

    I also bought the upgrade to Nero 7, so I'll see what happens once I install it after FSX and SP1.
