Title: Cannot get past "Error InstalShield Scripting Runtime" When reinstalling game
Post by: jim.mar on December 20, 2014, 03:25:34 PM

Last winter I reformatted my HD and re-installed Windows 7 (64 bit).   At that time I lost my Flight simulator game that I enjoyed a lot.   Lately I tried to re-install my Flight Simulator game but I get the message "Error  InstallShield Runtime".  Is there a quick fix to this?   ???

What is the exact game you are installing to check on its compatibility?

Is this an installation from Disc or a download off the internet?

Hi DaveLembke.   Thank you for the come back.  The exact name is:       "Microsoft Flight Simulator"   "Deluxe edition".      It is on two DVD's.   

It is one of the software packages that was awarded to me by Microdot for participating in a development program that they had going.  (Which was preempted by "MY Space").         It was not compatible with Windows Vista   >:(    but was compatible with Windows 7 which is the OS that I am now using.      :)
