Download problems [reopened as per original posters request]

[nem]

Ok, Damien, one more time. Let me clear up some things first. Please read the following thoroughly. A second and third time, if need be.

1. Micrsoft Flight Simulator 2004 is NOT the same as FSPassengers 2004. Lets get the names straight.

2. Micrsoft Flight Simulator 2004 (henceforth abbreviated "FS2004") is the basic game you need and which you (I guess) have already installed.

3. FSPassengers 2004 (henceforth abbreviated "FSP") is an add-on for FS2004, of which (I guess) you tried to download and install the
demo version, and which is supported in this very forum.

4. You most definitely don't have a download related problem, because if the SETUP of FSP starts to throw some error messages at you, it means that at
least the download of FSP went flawlessly.

5. Now what the setup of FSP tries to tell you is, that your installation of FS2004 is somewhat screwed up. Most Windows applications (and
games) register themselves with the operating system (that's what Windows is) by writing stuff to a special file, called the Registry. FSP
setup tells you, that it cannot find the stuff FS2004 should have written into the registry, hence it can't find your Flight Simulator, hence it won't
install itself.

6. If noone has a better suggestion you may have to REINSTALL your FS2004 to get it to register correctly with your operating system in the registry
file, so FSP can detect your FS2004 installation, so it can be installed, so you can try it out, so we will all live happily ever after.

And if this still didn't come through, then god help me.
