General Computer Support / Re: USB devices not automatically installing anymore.

« on: October 20, 2012, 09:50:58 am »

I believe I too am now having this problem.  I had a bug and removed it.  then a few weeks later, I lost my hard drive.  Chkdsk not not help your problems did not help.  So I got out a older hard drive and plugged into my laptop to clean it up was working fine,  within a few day it too failed.  Only would show the drive letter.  Today my external drive died.  Only showing the letter.  running now chkdsk G: /x /b showing 4 clusters bad also showing index, and usn journal with the problems.  Believe I seen this before the other 2 failed.  I used you tweek program on 2 of the 3 disk, and if I remember there was something about turning off index to speed up the sys.  Could this be killing my drives?  using vista.

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. 
1^st 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.

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.

General Computer Support / FSX side by side configuration failure

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?
