As Of Now I Have FSXSE installed and running on LOCAL DISK (E)....on my MAIN DISK (E) I run FSX and FS9....All no problems....Just recently my FS9 APPLICATION .Desk Top Icon will not Start up FS9..STALLED .Re installed , ICON,Still no start.....Thought of a Clean Reinstall,and Re Add what I Have...Then I thought of Inserting FS9 DISK 1 For Repair...However I do not know how to direct it to my MAIN DISK (E)..If possible..Thats it?...Thanking all In Advance For Ideas..and Any and all Greatly appreciated...Vin
 
I'm wondering if running FS9 Registry Repair on your "stalled" icon first might not be the way to go. I've got FS9 installed on two drives, and each of those two drives has multiple installations of the sim. E drive has three copies of FS9, G drive has 7 copies of FS9 on it, including one copy that is a stock install I keep just for comparison purposes against the others. G drive is also where my FSX installation is. I've had one of the FS9 copies on E drive "stall" once on me about two months ago, the desktop icon (which I keep in a "Shortcuts" folder on my desktop) refused to start the sim. I opened and ran the registry repair app for this specific icon copy of FS9 and that cured the problem.
