I have downloaded FSUIPC 3.96 for FS2004

Goodness gracious! Where from? It is very much out of date and not supportable!

The earliest supported version for FS2004 is 3.98, which is the one available on the download site http://www.schiratti.com/dowson . There's also a much later version in the Download Links subforum here.

Hello Pete,

I have made a mistake, I do have FSUIPC 3.98. Just a typo on my part.

So the problem is still the same, what can I do to get it to install?

Additional info, I had Windows XP when I first installed it, now I have vista trying to reinstall FSUIPC.

Regards

Ash

No it isn't. The install log proves it is 3.96:

Your Registry entry is screwed up...

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\9.0

INSTALLATION FOR FS9:
EXE Path="D:\Program Files"

That path is incomplete at best...

It should be something like this:

D:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9
