Installation Problem
-
Thank you for reading, I am very frustrated at something I am sure is my fault but I cannot figure out how to fix.
I downloaded the 4.35 torrent from this website and during the installation something happened. I am not sure what, but I had to restart the install and now when I try to run set up I receive an error saying
The registry points to a folder that does not contain a valid BMS4.35 install. Please restore the missing files or remove registry entry.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Benchmark SIms to be able to install the product again Path C:\Falcon BMS 4.35\I have searched my registry and can’t find anything.
Please help, I’m freaking out trying to figure out what is wrong.

You are on a 64 bit OS the path is
Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE*WOW6432Node*\Benchmark Sims\Falcon BMS 4.35

Thank you so much for responding.
Am I correct in understanding that I should remove “Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Benchmark Sims\Falcon BMS 4.35”
then try to reinstall?
I am sorry, this stuff is so hard for me to understand at all. Thank you again.

Yes delete the whole node and then start reinstall.
For unsintalling / rinstalling BMS you should always use the installer from your setup Folder and not just delete any file folders. Also keep in mind even after successfull install NOT to delete your setup folder. you need it for installing future updates or proper uninstalling

Thank you so much. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it.
Sitting here with brand new gladiator stick staring at a fricking error message that won’t let me play the sim I’ve been dying to play.
Thanks again.

Sometimes you have to endure some hazing and bullying by our ole gal F4, before she lets you in the front door.

Yeah I guess so. Thanks. Now I’m in the game and if I go to fullscreen the sound doesn’t work…I feel like I’m just getting hazed and bullied, and kicked between the legs all day man.
