Loz Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 Try this. I had a similar problem and although I was registered as Admin in the User Account I still needed to right click and select "run as administrator" for it to work. This in Windows 7.

boredtechie Posted December 2, 2010 Posted December 2, 2010 Hi, Welcome to SxS a new kind of DLL hell. A little background information on SxS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Side-by-side_assembly Some people have reported some success with sfc (system file checker) though I've never used it myself. I typically try to work out what's wrong using ProcessMonitor from SysInternals which is now part of Microsof. Process monitor records all of the File IO actions a process is performing amongst other things. Typically you'll see the last few lines of the log shows the process is looking for a certain file in a number of different locations. It's normally this file that's either completely missing or is the wrong version. bt
RIZLAHQ Posted December 3, 2010 Author Posted December 3, 2010 Sorted thankyou was x9 not been installed stopping program from launching, So used not having to worry about updating direct x since pretty much every game install comes with it. Cheers Riz
