I played [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sim_Brick"]Sim Brick[/ame]. 'Nuff said.
I know those as bounty games. The only thing you can do with them is pirate them, play them for an hour, have a laugh about the terrible physics/gamedesign/gameplay/pacing issues and move on.
Then again I enjoy the Silent Hunter series and thousands play a goat simulator, so...
Also, when a F-15E can't fly with only one engine, one tail, one elevator, and half of a wing missing, like the A-10 can, then you retire the latter. Until then, that "specialized role" is monopolized, and will continue to be monopolized, by the A-10.
Actually, as Loru posted, the F-15E/I, can and has, flown without a wing. It can also much better defend itself in an air to air situation. The A-10, of course, is still the better CAS aircraft by virtue of being designed from square one for that role.

But imagine a multiplayer-compatible dual cockpit module of the Strike Eagle in DCS.:jiggy:
Yep, just use unetbootin to "burn" the ISO to a usb drive. Just give it the .iso instead of selecting a distro.Anyone know if I can put an image of the disc onto a usb drive and boot from that?
Not sure, it depends on what the recovery actually does.Or if I create a recovery USB drive from a separate PC, will I be able to use that? Or will it introduce a product key conflict?

To clarify, I don't intend to do a 'restore'. A 'repair' from disc should do the job.
It seems more likely a Windows 8 bug than a disk problem.
Thanks for the info. Will try unetbootin.

Can you suggest a program to create the ISO?
Edit: This whole process is taking all day and night. Will report back when...something.
Edit2: UNetbootin failed me. However, I've found a Microsoft tool designed for Windows 7 that will work. I also finally realized that I wasn't thinking straight and accidentally made an ISO from my laptop's special Dell Windows 8 disc, rather than my desktop's ordinary Microsoft Windows 8 disc. Going to proceed with the Dell disc anyways; if it doesn't work, then I'll go through the eternal process of making an ISO from the other disc.
Aaaand I've sort of hit a wall. Well, time to buy a DVD drive...
