Greetings...
I purchased this software over the weekend - unzipped the exe files and the programs refuse to load...I run both FS9 and FSX. The installer begins but when it reaches the actual loading step, I get an error message that says "Unable to load." I have Vista on my computer and have checked all of my security settings...anyone venture a guess on what to do?

I do have standard install paths to C. I have made sure my firewalls are off in Windows and McAfee.

scott: please sign your name at the bottom of your future posts. did you disable UAC? (UAC isn't a firewall.) --

I'm afraid I don't know what UAC is so I can't answer that question...Scott

scott: UAC = user account control. a VISTA feature that essentially makes it impossible for someone, including you, to change any file in the programs directory ... which is where FS files are located. as Call!'s installer must edit the legacy's panel.cfg file UAC must be off. search flightsim.com or avsim.com forums for 'turning off UAC', or a general Internet search, on how to turn the feature. --
