No disc version of Flight Simulator will work on any Xbox

The problem you are experiencing may be due to a variety of factors, such as hardware, driver, or game software issues. Here are some things you can try to troubleshoot it:

Verify that your internet connection is stable and that you have enough free space on your hard drive.
Uninstall and reinstall MS Flight Simulator. This can fix problems with the game installation.
Update your graphics drivers. Outdated graphics drivers can cause compatibility issues with some games.
