Thanks in advance for ur kind help Michael. This thread is locked. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread. I have the same question 0. Report abuse. Details required :. Cancel Submit. Hi Michael, It's not possible to have two installations of FSX as the Sim that is activated on your laptop is the one that is registered.
Let us know how you go. Maybe we need to hack somehow fsx? Greetings mrfoxik.

I have tried wide view, and have seen up to 8 computers conected, running 16 monitors. Here's how I would do it; 1. Where is the sense in that? It seems to me that most of you who are involved in this thread don't own the OS Installation Disc. When I said ' I figured that those who have never actually owned an OS Installation disc probably have never reformatted a HDD unless off course it's in their line of work.
I'm aware that you know your way around computers. This and similar threads expose a lot of confusion regarding the installation of FSX. My probing was prompted by my assumption that each time you reformat your HDD, you have a clean slate - this at least is my experience.
My guess is, that any information regarding previous installations is also erased. If I'm wrong, please tell me - I do want to learn. I agree on this Format erases everything. We're talking reformatting - not formatting. So what is Wiping then? Never heard of that before When you format a drive it erases the information but not the image of that information.
The image can still be read and used to create a new drive with the formatted information. The image is not erased until it has been "written over". Wiping is a process of erasing the drive by means of a program that makes several passes, depending on how badly you want the information gone vs how much time you have to do it , and erases the drive. Drives fail all the time and nowadays drive restoration is a big business. I can restore a drive that has failed as long as Windows recognizes it.
I can then make an image of that drive and restore it to a new drive. I can do this for a couple hundred dollars. If your drive has totally failed it has to be taken apart in a "clean room" and rebuilt. This process can run into the thousands.
On the other hand, when I reformat my HDD using the OS' Installation Disc we're not confusing this with some 'Recovery Disc' or 'Restoration Disc' that brand computers supply , before opting to reformat the HDD rather than reinstalling or repairing the OS -- why am I always prompted that this process will erase all data My experience combined with your claim or my misreading of it would mean that indeed everything gets erased: Programs, Drivers and all my Files except certain other data Ok, it doesn't erase the data, it hides it.
But the data is still there and will be until it is written over or wiped. For example, say you were involved in some kind of computer crime. You may think that if you format or erase the data from your hard drive that that is getting rid of the evidence. But the evidence is not erased. It is still there. Think of it like doing a crossword in pencil. You make a mistake and you erase it. But if you examine what you erased very thoroughly, you would still be able to see what you just erased.
All formatting does is prepare a disk to accept data. Yes, I understand this principle. Like deleting a file but it will still be "hidden" until overwritten.
So, in the context of this topic, my assumption that should someone run out of the 'allowed' number of installs - a reformat should turn the counter back to zero Formatting will not ZERO out a drive. There will still be ONE's there. The computer will not recognize that FSX has previously been installed if you format it. I believe MS store certain details about your computer when you activate FSX that are not disturbed when you format your computer so you can then reactivate easily.
This is called an Installation ID. But, from what ive read, if you replace certain hardware or install certain Microsoft updates this unique ID can change so MS does not recognize your installation ID anymore and it wont let you reactivate FSX and this is where problems arise for people that have bought FSX legally.
Yeah, Ye olde world view of software licensing. Pretty sure a lot of EULAs will have very similiar wording. I'm also pretty sure most people never read them and are completely oblivious to how many rules they technically break. I only put it in the post to cover my backside from a legal perspective and I had a strong feeling it would be there before I checked.
Though I suspect no one would ever be taken to court on this matter alone for a product they have purchased, it would only be used to add on to more serious breaches in the EULA.
