    New laptop with no dvd access


    Hi all,my daughter bought me a new laptop without cd player or burner.Hope I said that right.Just has usb ports.
    That's ok with me cuz really don't need it.Here's the thing,it came with Kaspersky Internet Security free for 6
    months.It's on a disc,is there anyway to install it.Hope this makes sense.

    :)

    DVD drive in Windows 10

    I've just bought a new laptop with Windows 10 installed and cannot access the DVD drive. Other questions on this issue seem to refer to upgrades to Windows 10 rather than a pre-installed version.

    Flight Simulater X Gold Edition.

    Several years ago I purchased Flight Simulator X Gold Edition which includes 2 DVD's and the acceleration Expansion Pack. Now I wish to load it on my new Windows 10 laptop which does not have a DVD drive.

    Please provide link that allows me to access FSX so that I may activate using the Product Keys on each of my DVD's. Hopefully the same access will enable me to load MS Combat Simulator and MS Train Simulator.

    Thank you,

    Phil

    Never silly to make an error. What is silly if you do not learn from it!

    As an aside, you can buy external usb dvd drives very cheaply eg from Amazon. It is handy now and again as not all software is downloadable from web, and of course you can play normal dvd videos on pc as well.

    As cereberus said, you can get an inexpensive external that connects via USB for those rare instances you need one. I just keep one on hand at home.
