This response is for all of you that sent messages.
Mr. Zippy and all of you are correct. I did get FSM to load. As per Mr. Zippy, it took a long time (35 min) for the "removing applications" part to complete and then the rest went quickly. I entered the activation code when requested and rebooted when it was all complete.
After playing for a bit I ran the acceleration disk and it ran fine, except I never got a request to enter the activation code. I rebooted again.
Now if I click on the FSM icon on desktop to open FSM I get an error code 1-80004005 and it says an unexpected error occured that is preventing activation from being completed.
It asks if I want to see details. If I click on no the message goes away and the FSM acceleration window with the normal stiff opens and as far as I can tell, I can fly in any way I want to.
