BIG BIG problem with FS9.

Post by maverick10 »

Hey all,

I had too reinstall my fs due to a virus on my computer. I couldn't delete via the CD of the game so I deleted the whole directory,
I have a new computer now, so i reinstralles fs9. But when i come to 99% it says that he cannot find a CAB.EXE file. and the installationt cancels. And i recently bought the PMDG 737, 747 so i'm very angry that i can't play it....
Does anyone know a fix, or something else?

Thanks in advance!

Sounds like the same issue I had with FSX.

It's either a problem with the CD or the computer. In my case, it was a CD issue so I bought another copy of FSX.

Yes, that does sound like an issue with the CD.

Perhaps you could download a copy of FS2004 (which would be legal, seeing as you own it), and try installing it using the downloaded one?
