Can't get 1.06 to run in XP

Post by Bondad »

Just coming back to this after several months and was trying to update to 1.06
and getting a windows exception error while trying to load any scenario or save.

This is Windows XP professional service pack2, i7 quad core w/6gigs ram

Going back to 1.05c or 1.05d works just fine, but 1.05j or 1.06 locks while loading a
scenario with the exception error right at the point that the GFX are trying to load.

Tried a complete uninstall and reinstall of Case Blue, and installed and reinstalled
the patches several times with no luck, anything past 1.05d won't load a scenario ,
campaign or save in XP.

any ideas?

Thanks

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Sounds like you are missing the dot net for windows....try updating windows and selecting the dot net libraries

Thanks...I'm not sure what you mean by selecting library's, I've
got NET framework 2.0 & 3.0 installed, I think the base game requires
2.0 and checks during installation. is there a newer update
or something needed for version 1.05j or 1.06 ? ...everything up
to and including 1.05d runs with no problem at all.

Sorry for the late response.

I have 2 suggestions that might help you.

1. Try to install Framework 2.0 service pack 2.

2. Try to install Windows XP service pack 3.

Let me know if any of these 2 things help.

best,
Vic

Thanks for reporting back Bondad :)

I am going to double check with the Matrix software installer if they are checking for the service pack as well.

Happy gaming,

Vic
