Runetime error on first startup in Windows XP.

Hey all. Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere and I missed it, but I had a search through and couldn't find anything.

 

So I've installed LO-MAC, then Flaming Cliffs, then the 1.12b patch, and on start-up I get an error message;

 

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

 

Runtime Error!

 

Program: E:\Games\LOMAC\lockon.exe

 

abnormal program termination

 

And I remain at the desktop without anything having loaded. I do hear the menu backing track, though. I've tried reinstalling and reapplying the patch, and the same thing occurs. My system is;

 

Windows XP Pro SP3

Athlon 64 X2 4600+

2gb RAM

Asus M2N-E Motherboard

NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT

 

All of the answers I've found either involve reinstalling the game which hasn't worked, or a Vista-only suggestion about turning off user account control.

 

Any help would be very much appreciated. I've had FC running on this PC before, so there's got to be some way around it.

 

Edit - 'Runetime error'? Oh dear, oh dear.

Hmmm, unistall the Microsoft visual. What sim have your PC installed?

The runtimes problems generally are in the register, so unistall the MS Visual and unistall the LO:FC then install the LO:FC with a DirectX apropied for you system.

Sorry for my english.

 

I wait help you. For any question send me a PM
