Hi,Im just starting to build the virtual FS9 folder for MAIW use with my FSX.I have followed all instructions in MAIW FSX Installation Guide 2.0. Im stuck at finding the path to the FS9.exe file I put in the virtual FS9 folder with the ADE9X Enviroment Checker Setup program. Heres how I made the FS9.exe file. Oh,I have Windows 7 64bit home premium. While in the virtual fs9 folder I right clicked and selected (new) then chose text document and renamed it FS9.exe. I could find no choise to create new(file). So what I have is a blank text that I named FS9.exe. Problem is when I try to set the required path to it with ADE9X Enviroment Checker Setup program it doesnt even show up. I even typed FS9.exe in the text but that didnt help.
I did copy the fs9.exe file from within the FSX program to the virtual fs9 folder and found the path just fine.But that wasnt in the instructions so I deleted it.And I did create and place the fs9 folder in computer-C drive.
any advice please
Thank you

Hi Skimmer,
Go ahead and use the copy of the real fs9.exe. After all this is just about tricking the old WOAMIL packages. The newer packages would all do without this detail anyway. I need to find the time for a new revision of the guide...
