FSX side by side configuration failure

(1/4) > >>

Russ1073:
I have run your lastest program to clear this after following every MS suggestion, forum, and video out there.  Nothing will work.  the entire game is no longer even on the system.  I have reloaded windows.
Yet every time I attempt install the game say's side by side configuration failure.  Is my only option to do a complete reformat just to install 1 game?

Shane:
I know I wouldnt want to do a fresh reinstall for just one game lol

Do you have trouble with any other games?

Also can you post a screen shot of the error when you get for me please :-)

Here is what I got so far.  Also ran the latest win repair you have. and copied the event log entry.

Looks like it is the visual c runtime files causing the error.

Also found this, while it is for VC 9 and your is VC8 it should give us a clue where to start looking.

Have you also made sure the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 is up to date? I think it gets updated through the Windows update.

Ok I have went down deep following your post.  I have seen that this number 1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b is located in 2 spots and agrees with the ms post.  What would happen if I just deleted the 2 spots I found?  A reload of windows or problem removed from regs.
