Attn: Carlos!!!

[Guest Tony Sperling]

Good morning! (here)

 

I recieved this in one of the other groups I attend - (simulators) as I

remember, Carlos is one of the most prominent authorities on 'side-by-side'

errors recognizeable to human knowledge (no?).

 

<snip>

 

*********

I installed MSFSx when I zp installed. Then I installed Vista now I get a

side by side conguration error when I try to start MSFS x I have checked my

video driver. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Can we help this poor fellow? If he is 'dual-booting', will he need to

re-install anything?

Tony,

Sorry for being late but we are having an Internet blackout in the Island.

Don't know how but I am connected here at my job.

SideBySide errors mean that you are not having the correspoding VC++ dll's

installed in your system.

Note that x64 systems use both the x86 and x64 versions, depending on the

program that needs them.

VC++ redistributables can be found here:

Re: Attn: Carlos!!!

 

Ah, I know about those blackouts - often (not allways) it's because I forget

they want their money first. As for the rest I guess we'll be at the mercy

of the networks at least until somebody invents a Internet Dynamo that we

can plug into our rowing machine?

 

About those 'Redistributables' - since not everything needs them, is this a

..NET requirement or is it a Vista thing, and will they ever install if they

are needed? Is there some way that you know of, of second guessing before

you install something?

 

Thanks though, Carlos! Let's hope he's helped.

Tony,

Not a .NET Framework, not a Vista thing.

I guess that well-behaved programs should install all their needed dll's.

Some, but not all, are ill-behaved.

What I always do, after an OS clean install, is to install:

1.- DirectX redist

2.- .NET Framework 3.5 (latest)

3.- x86 and x64 redists of VC++ 2005 and 2008 (4 installs)

Then, and only then, I begin installing the rest of the apps/games.

 

I guess that FSX needs only the VC++2005 x86 package, but it doesn't hurt to

install the 4 packages below.

Download links for VC++:

 

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=200B2FD9-AE1A-4A14-984D-389C36F85647&displaylang=en

 

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x64)

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=EB4EBE2D-33C0-4A47-9DD4-B9A6D7BD44DA&displaylang=en

 

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9B2DA534-3E03-4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF&displaylang=en

 

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x64)

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=BD2A6171-E2D6-4230-B809-9A8D7548C1B6&displaylang=en

 

This is all result of my experience, because I have never programmed in

VC++, .NET or anything similar.

So, my "alchemist" reflections may not be quite right/orthodox but get along

very well with the results.

Just plain old DOS BASIC, Visual Basic and Excel macros, AND ASSEMBLER!!!

Re: Attn: Carlos!!!

 

Thanks, Carlos!

 

I had a look at the download page and I found out 'SideBySide' is actually a

'Library' file in VC. If you develop using this library you need VC to be

installed - or the redist!

 

The versions of VC that I remember didn't have any such library, I need to

dig in there I think?

 

I first tried doing some early BASIC from a dictionary, but it didn't catch

on with me I wanted something HardCore - I started with Quick C (DOS based)

and took an ASSEMBLY course because I wanted what proved to become the short

lived version of Quick C + Macro Assembler. As usual, MS discontinued that

wonderfull package before I could pay for it and time sailed away before I

found any real use for my new-found passion. Well if you know the basics of

assembly, it's no wonder you have a good understanding for Hardware and

Operating Systems, no matter your viewing angle, the concepts are all

extending and overlapping into each other!
