Do you have the .NET Runtimes? I linked it in the Build 0100 post I think.

Make sure your system is up to date (Windows updates) and maybe some antivirus or malware software is causing trouble. Try to run somedit with this software turned off. You could also try to redownload the somedit and the fmod dll (choose the right one! x64 or x86).

Good luck.

Using the wrong fmod won't crash it - you'll get a message on the status bar saying it's missing or invalid.

Personally I'm running xp prof 32 on an x64 cpu, 4 gig of ram, .NET 3.5 (i think- unable to check right now). Fmod 32 bit.

Trying to think what else might screw with it. Is it sitting in a read-only directory? It tries to make a config file in the same directory.

What was the other computer running? Xp?

I don't have a comp with win7 handy but maybe I could install it to a VM and try somedit on it.

Edit: have you tried running in "compatibility mode?" I'm still not convinced that even does anything, but it's worth a shot.

All versions of windows 7 come with .net.wether 32 bit or 64 bit.only on xp would it require you to install.read second answer.

http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/....5a-c1c2175ce111


an easy way would be if people posted thier setup ups and list what(if any) errors came up so you could narrow it down.

my setup = windows 7 64 bit sp1 (.net included 3.5.1) with fmod 64 bit version and everything runs fine....

as retrohelix said one thing might be virus (from a different program) that is not letting somedit run....

50% of the time programs or games dont run for me its due to missing vc++ files....i have microsoft visual c++ 2005,2008,2010 redistributable both x86 and x64


http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=14632

the easiest and safest solution is a fresh win7 install...it lets you know everything is gone wether virus,corrupt programs etc and also you now get to see what programs you are installing.
