FSX side by side configuration failure

<< < (3/4) > >>

I thought for sure that was going to work.  Nope, no problems on startup comp did run a defrag on regs that is all.

Shane:
At least we know what is cauing the problem :-)

I say uninstall VC 8 runtimes. Then remove any reg traces of it and delete the files from the side by side dir.

Reboot and then see how things go and reinstall them when it asks. :wink:

also this "1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b" has to do with framework/visual C++

Russ1073:
I am sometimes amazed by the idiot in me.  It was framework and Visual C++ causing some of the problem.  The other part was me.  I was attempting to load an add-on upgrade to the computer.  Not the basic program that was needed first.

Lesson learn. 
1st ensure you are attempting to load the correct program.
2 nd ensure you are updated with the latest framework and Visual C++

This should clear up any side by side configuration failure you have.

I Would also like to say thank you for helping me trouble shoot the problem.  Couldn't of done it without your help.
