View Full Version : Multi Installs in Windows 7 Problem

I've recentely upgraded from Windows XP Pro to Windows 7. In XP I had multiple FS9 installs that worked without a hitch.

Now, in Windows 7, the only FS9 install that works is the default install.

I've tried running the FS9 multi installs in XP compatability mode, but no luck.

I'm running CFS2 and CFS3 multi installs with no problems.

Any ideas why I can't get FS9 multi installs to work??

I have 4 installs, all seem to be working.

Try running each one with admin control the first time. I can't remember exactly what I had to do, but it seems that was it.

Thanks, Modelr,

After some un/reinstalls, registry cleaning, voodoo rituals, and short, invictive prayers to the computer gods, my multi installs are now working.

Go figure.

Yeah I have had multiple installs for awhile and all of them work fine on W7
