FSX Won't Install

[rewasiuk]

Trying to re-install FSX but I keep getting error 1722 and 1603. Went into registry and deleted everything pertaining FSX. No success. So somewhere on my HDD are remnants of FSX. Any ideas?

FSX puts stuff in the user's folder in a couple of places.

FSX puts stuff in the user's folder in a couple of places.

Alky's right. Not only cleaning the registry is needed, but also every single bit of FSX in the app data folders and in the document folders.

This is what Mickey$oft has to say about the errors:

Hope this helps.

Been there done that with Microsoft. Did notice one thing that since disabling all services, computer seems quite a bit faster.
