I purchased Acceleration in Oct 2008 and installed it with no trouble and everything worked fine. I was having problems with FSX and decided to delete and reinstall everything. FSX works OK after installation but I am unable to get the Acceleration disc to work. It did go through the install procedure the first time but as a number of things were unsatisfactory I did another complete uninstall and reinstalled of both FSX and Acceleration. Unfortunately I cannot make progress after inserting the disc. The FSX icon appears named FSX XPack (D) but when clicking on the icon it flashes and a message comes up on the screen for a microsecond so brief that it is impossible to read* then nothing happens.

*I have just been able to read the message 'Windows installer - Preparing to install,

Any ideas?
