What? Where'd this little bit of hate come from Erik? I put up a couple
suggestions and ask for system specs thinking there may be something in
Col. Huck's setup that could be causing this problem. I'm sorry I don't
see the context of what you're trying to say here? I'm looking through
my newsreader and I see any responses from you to this post.
Am I missing something? Col. Huck stated he was having problems
installing FSX when he gets to disc 2, I mean that seems like it could
be something as simple as a scratched disc. I didn't know you had to be
a "technical guru" to offer a suggestion to get his problem resolved.
I never claim to be the end all, be all of information when it comes to
this newsgroup, and if being a technical guru requires a certain level
of snideness and the need to insult people for no apparent reason then
I'd be happy to bow to your guru-ness.
That said, I am a human being, I know the Internet offers you the
marvellous freedom of being able to insult people without fear of
reprocussion, but I don't appreciate it, and I'm sure you don't either.
