Has anyone done this? Is there anything I should know before I'm surprised?

+1 I still haven't figured out if it was changing to Windows 7 or the new anti-virus, but I'm having to run FSInn from the background and not through the FSX add-ons. Functionally, it doesn't operate any different, but it just will not work in FSX.
On XP, everything worked just fine.
