2004 Setup

I am upgrading to FS2004 from FS2002 and the instructions
happy say that the game will not run without CD #4
loaded! What is this! (Microsoft is so 1980s - they
can't figure out anything!)

How do I stash CD #4's code or startup files or whatever
on the C drive so I don't have to go through this stupid
step every time I want to fly Flight Sim?

(Jeez. A Commodore 64 was easier to deal with than MS
software. Why don't they just wait until they get
something right... for once?)

If you don't like it - don't buy it - else search the web for nocd

hi flyer -
You don't think Gates got to be the world's richest by
doing everything right do you? Jesus tried that, and see
what it got him.

Download the zip file and unzip the contents into a temp
folder. Copy and paste the contents into the main FS9
folder. It will ask you to overwrite, say yes. Thats it!!
