Hello, I had to a fresh install of Windows vista and when I try to install Command again I get these errors

The next error message is in my next post.

michaelm75au -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/16/2015 4:17:16 AM)

Have you tried installing command again? It installs the third party components (like dx9 and .net) - these are also located in the 'prerequisites' directory in Commnand's game directory.




stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/16/2015 5:06:15 AM)

Yes, I just now tried that and it still happend. Funny thing is that it was working before, I just had to download the x86 file to fix the Lua problem when I first installed the game so I thought it might be that problem again. I downloaded the x86 file again but the game doesn't work. Not too sure what to try next.




thewood1 -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/16/2015 11:14:42 AM)

Try installing the directx that came with the game. You can't just download any version of it.




mikmykWS -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/16/2015 1:28:38 PM)

Hi Willy

If you installed at default locations your direct file should be here:

C:\Matrix Games\Command Wargame of the Year Edition\PreRequisites\directx_mar2009_redist

Run the dxsetup.exe file.

Likewise your .nets are here

C:\Matrix Games\Command Wargame of the Year Edition\PreRequisites


It sounds like the dx is the issue. Please run it.

stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/18/2015 1:04:54 AM)

Hello, I ran the dxsetup.exe file and I still get the same error message. Strange ...[&:]




thewood1 -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/18/2015 1:46:16 AM)

Did you run the .net that came with Command?




stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/18/2015 2:46:22 AM)

Not sure what you mean (sorry i'm a little thick at times).




thewood1 -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/18/2015 2:19:17 PM)

There are three things that should install when you reinstall...

C++ distributed libraries
DirectX9
.net framework

You need to install three, even if you think you have a version on your machine.

Also, pay attention. If you don't work through the prompts, the installs might just abort without telling you and Command will just crash on start.




stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/18/2015 6:46:31 PM)

Yes I went through all the prerequisites and they all seem to be there [&:]




thewood1 -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/18/2015 7:00:04 PM)

Well when you didn't know what .net was, I was a little concerned. You also mentioned you downloaded directx from someplace...also a little concerned.




mikmykWS -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/18/2015 11:26:16 PM)

Have you hit the update button and received all updates?

Please do that and then post a screenshot again of any errors.

Thanks!

Mike




stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/19/2015 9:18:11 PM)

I updated the game to 1.7 using the auto update and here is the error messages I got:

stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/19/2015 9:20:33 PM)

And this comes up when I run the game. Looks like it's not installing correctly.

thewood1 -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/19/2015 9:35:29 PM)

Most of those messages tell me you don't have C++ libraries and Directx installed correctly.




stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/19/2015 10:04:16 PM)

Yeah, I'll try re-installing them again and see if it does anything




mikmykWS -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/20/2015 12:07:37 AM)

Yes. Same here.

Thanks!

Mike




stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/21/2015 3:40:21 AM)

Tried again installing and no luck. I've been installing from the DVD, I wonder if it's worth trying to re-download and install it instead?




thewood1 -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/21/2015 1:08:30 PM)

Make sure to sit and watch all the Directx and .net stuff install. They have messages that if you don't respond, back the install out.




Casinn -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/22/2015 5:12:00 AM)

just a wild ass guess, but have you rebooted your computer at all? Maybe the .dll isn't releasing and that may do it.




stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/22/2015 5:59:17 AM)

I just installed it on my wife's laptop and it worked ok. I'll uninstall and reinstall again on the desktop to give it another try.




stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/23/2015 4:56:48 AM)

Nah no luck. I don't think I'm missing anything.




p1t1o -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/26/2015 10:11:06 AM)

Hey man,
just a thought, something you said made me think of something - even if you think you have up-to-date software (referring to the directX, .NET framework, C++ etc.) do a "repair" install anyway, if it comes up and says something like "uninstall or repair?". I'm sure I always have up-to-date software, but doing this has solved similar problems in other games many times.
Ignore this if you've tried it already, I'm sure you have wracked your brains, I know I would have!
Good Luck




Dimitris -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (5/30/2015 10:40:54 AM)

What happened with this ?




stevemk1a -> RE: Problem with windows reinstall (6/6/2015 4:03:09 AM)

I gave up.
