Nascar Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) I upgraded to Windows 8 from 64 bit Vista because my system was taking 10 min to boot after a hardware upgrade. Now it boots fine but in the process most of my games now will not work. It put all my Dcs stuff in Windows.old. I get the error MSVCP100.dll is missing. I installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 to fix, but no luck. I am worried if I do a fresh install I wont be able to ever use Flaming cliffs 3, since it needs Lock on to run. That wont run on windows 8 and I uninstalled it. Fixed it. Re-install latest video driver using custom settings (Not Express) and check clean install box. Woohoo. Thanks for your help.

joey45 Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 You just need LOMAC installed.. FC3 only looks to see if it's installed. You don't need to run it. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

159th_Viper Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 Aye, LOMAC runs fine on Win8. It's FC that you'll have an issue with, but that irrelevant for the purposes of a FC3 install.
