VFR Generation X scenery v3 install problems.
Hi, I have installed FSX on a new PC with windows 10 and the installation is successful.
The problem is loading the Generation X scenery version 3.
The DVD will not load the software.
I have tried a lot of methods to get it working.
1. using the old fashioned Dos command xcopy to copy the files to a single folder and run the setup from there. That fails because of Cyclic Redundancy Check, that could be something to do with copy protection?
2. testing the DVD on another win 10 PC by setting the compatibility to windows 7 service pack 2. the result is that windows says the program will not work (or word to that effect)
3. running the setup, after starting the win 10 PC in some sort of safe mode, the idea being to stop other systems stopping the DVD from working correctly.
And yes the disk is clean and other disks work ok (eg the fsx work fine).
Ideas welcome.
