Hi guys, my name is Don.
I have been using FSX for about 6 or 7 years and have never had a problem with the 7 or 8 pc's i've used it on.
i usually find i can get by and fix most probs with my pc and software, but this has me stumped.
I'm trying to install my FSX gold onto my "E" drive which was my C drive untill i bought a ssd and loaded my os and another game onto it.
So my problem is that i have loaded FSX onto E drive fine BUT....
when i use the sim , as soon as i start moving,.. the whole screen picture starts shaking violently.. like really crazy and it gets worse the faster i go.
any help would be muck appreciated.
My specs are .
cpu - i7-2700k 4.2 Ghz
ram - 16 gb DDR3
gpu- nvidia GTX-660ti
psu- TT 700w
watercooled
Windows 7 64
Main drive 120gb SSD (OS, 1 game and security. no room left.)
Second HDD 2 TB HDD (Want FSX here)
please help.... it's not a natural shake... its Realy glitchy bad.
sorry about my grammer.
P.S It's not a hack as i have bought the sim twice and would be insulted if anyone said it was ..can give a screen shot of me and the disks


SOLVED!!!!!
step 1 i installed all 3 disks from gold to E drive.
step 2  Found FSX file @ program data in "c" drive, copied and pasted to "e"drive
step 3   found flight simulatorX files @ "C/documents" , copied and pasted to "E" drive.
step 4   deleted all fsx related files from "C" drive .
so  even though i installed to "E" drive .. some components went to "C" drive ,,, therfore the sim would not work properly, and removing any confusion from both drives resulted in a perfectly smooth running FSX.

I hope this NEVER happens to anyone else as it was a brain buster  Cheesy
