Skids Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 I posted this in another topic area but it may have not been seen there as I had no answer as yet, I do not know whether you are busy with other things or it was not seen. Good Morning afternoon all, I have had a similar problem with ORBX England. I purchased the hard copy DVD of this scenery package and have issues installing it. The setup starts to run but about half way through it asks to insert disc2, I manage to eventually get it to continue by removing and inserting the dvd a number of times and then get asked for disk3. This is where it stops completely. The dvd has not been damaged this end as it is new. I also am told by a friend that he has the same problem with the New Zealand South Island scenery DVD. I also tried his DVD on my machine with the same problem. I then made a Copy of the NZ DVD to a new blank DVD and tried that. This copy of the original worked perfectly. Seems that some of the DVD's released are faulty? Can anyone advise please? These scenery packages are completely legit and purchased versions in original boxes from flightsimstore.com Regards Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogtrack Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Open the DVD on your PC. Copy the contained zip files into a folder on your pc. Now unzip them, putting all content into a single folder. Now you can run the Executive. I think you have the "backup" DVD, as apposed to the Boxed version, which uses Autoplay. Two different products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skids Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 Thanks for that dogtrack but I have the Original Boxed version DVD, at least I hope so as it was sent from Flightsimstore.com by post Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My DVD drive is new and works fine so it has to be the disc/DVD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Goff Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Over the years we've noticed that some DVD drives just don't like to play nice with product DVD's, or vice versa. The issue seems to have gone down over time but I'm glad to hear your issue has been resolved Regards, Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skids Posted November 3, 2013 Author Share Posted November 3, 2013 Thankyou Alex, I'm Glad that I am not the only one with this problem ( in a nice way) in that it not I who has done something wrong or anything else has gone awry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
