Re: FSX Problem

What made you throw the box away? Didn't you realize that all software now puts an activation key somewhere in the packaging, and you don't throw anything away until you find it? (And maybe copy it to a safe place.)

Re: FSX Problem

that's what I've should of done but I throw away boxes whenever I buy a game (its a terrible habit) but now it really doesn't matter. When I installed Falcon 4.0 it didnt ask me for a key. Its probably just how microsoft is

Re: FSX Problem

Most PC games use a CD Key printed on the box, the game manual, or a small card as part of its copy protection. You should probably either cut it out and put it in a safe place before throwing the box and materials away or just keep everything.
