Have you tried today to play the game(s) with the problem? It appears that you now have the proper files.
I am playing it currently - I will en-devour to attempt to recreate the issue and let you know.
Thanks again for all your help writh, you've been a champ, unlike some other people on another site that shall remain unnamed =)
You're welcome. :) Keep us updated on how the online gaming experience goes and whether the problem is solved.
Looks like we got it fixed up.
Thanks again for all your help.
I think what did the trick was I went back after doing some more reading and redid the 2005 c++ redist's (both 86 and 64) and made sure they removed the previous installations first.
Then I had the files showing up that you asked I search for.
I guess when I did the install the previous time, it didn't remove / install and simply tried to 'repair' and didn't install that particular file.
In any case, it's working now and all is well.
Your a champ and I appreciate your assistance in this matter.
Cheers.
Good news! :) Feel free to mark the thread solved when you are convinced it is solved.
And you are very welcome.
