Re: Flight Simulator X - Receiving error message

Are you getting that error message during installation or when trying to run the game after installation?

Re: Flight Simulator X - Receiving error message[MOVED FROM WINDOWS]

It is a message we get when we are trying to install the game for the first time.

Re: Flight Simulator X - Receiving error message[MOVED FROM WINDOWS]

Go to E:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator X and see if the ui.dll file is there.

Is E: your CD drive, a hard drive or a virtual drive?

Are you using the original CD or a backup copy?

Re: Flight Simulator X - Receiving error message[MOVED FROM WINDOWS]

We are trying to install from the original set of CD's that we just bought from Best Buy. The E: drive is the drive for the CD's. And, yes, the file is located on the CD.

Re: Flight Simulator X - Receiving error message[MOVED FROM WINDOWS]

Is ui.dll missing from E:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator X ?

Does your computer meet the minimum requirements listed on the side of the game box?

From what I've been reading, ui.dll could be related to Microsoft's .NET Framework, which is needed for some installations, not only Flight Sim. Download and install .NET from here, then reboot and try installing Flight Sim again.
