Oh sorry, read that wrong. Forget my last post (Thought title said something else).

I don't see a full download on their website, but what you can do is download a bootleg copy of the game. Install and enter your CD key. It's safe (From my past experiences).

M3X,

Had the same problem did the following two things , the disk chatter went away and the reinstall of FSX went smoothly:

1) I cleaned the surface of all disks with alcohol

2) Went to Control Panel in WIN 7 - Go to Hardware and sound -Autoplay options

Go to the Software and games tab - Make sure the selection is "Install or Run from your media"

After these steps the disks loaded and ran fine.

I suspect the main factor was cleaning the disk surface.
