When I start up FSX, it says that I don't have enough disk space. About 2 hours ago, when I last started up FSX, it was just fine. I haven't downloaded anything new since then. Here's the exact message: Your computer does not have enough disk space available to run Flight Simulator. The program will now exit.

You seem to be having all the problems in the world with your FSX install... why not whipe out your hard drive clean, reinstall Windows and then reinstall FSX? That would save you a lot of trouble.
If that fails, your hardware is not good enough, or your FSX DVDs have something wrong and you need them replaced...

Nah, I fixed it by deleting a few files from my C drive. I would wipe out my hard drive, but there's a code I need to install FSX and I lost it.

ok, delete more stuff then. Trouble shooting computer problems over a forum is difficult.
Good luck.

I did delete a ton of stuff, but I'm running out of things on the drive that I don't need.

Have you looked on your hard drive to see what is consuming all this space?

You might have some TEMP files that can be removed. Also, if you never plan to uninstall any of the Windows updates, you can remove the uninstall files to create more space. Magic Jelly Bean keyfinder (Google it) might be able to retrieve all your license codes if a reinstall is required. It is a Freeware app.
