Crash with all FSDT sceneries, msvcr80.dll fault

(1/2) > >>

Help anyone, I am about to pull my hairs out!

I installed W7 fresh couple of days ago. Then I started installing FSX...
Just today I finalized everything, just to discover that ALL my FSDT stuff is crashing the sim when I attempt to load it.

First thing I did was search the forums, found couple of topics on what to do.

So far I tried:
Uninstalling all C++ 2005 redistributables.
Reinstalling them.
Removing FSX (I backed up first), reinstalling FSX allowing it to install its own redist. Installed SP1 + SP2. Then tried FSDT KJFK for a test.
Crash.

I basically did all I could do around that msvcr80.dll, short of deleting ALL msvcr80.dll on my system, which could cause some serious problems I read.

Anyway, FSDT has always worked great, just now started getting these problems.

I DO NOT WANT to go through installing W7 + FSX again, as if I had to do that, I would probably throw this bag of crap out of the window, so I hope, I really hope there is some magical solution to this.

Kosta:
Maybe this will help the support:

I tried following: I removed ALL 2005 and 2008 libraries, then I reinstall FSX into fresh folder, renaming the old one.
FSX installed the vcredist, though funnily enough, it didn't appear on the programs list after installation. So I installed it manually. Good.
SP1 + SP2 - good.
Then FSDT into new clean FSX. Works!
Then I restored my "old" installation, cleaning FSDT previously, installing it again into "old" FSX. Crash!

Apparently, there is some issue with the FSX/FSDT itself, NOT msvcr80.dll, as they just previously worked in the "old" FSX with the same libraries installed.

According to your report, it's exactly the opposite:


--- Quote ---Then FSDT into new clean FSX. Works!
--- End quote ---


--- Quote ---Then I restored my "old" installation, cleaning FSDT previously, installing it again into "old" FSX. Crash!

This above two steps clearly proves FSDT stuff it's ok when installed in a clean FSX installation, the problem was something else which went wrong in your old FSX install, which caused FSDT stuff crashing when installed into an FSX install that surely had some kind of problem.

Kosta:
You are quite correct.

I was still hoping as it is fsdt scenery that crashes when loaded, that you might be able to help me.

Could you tell me exact files fsdt installers change or write into fsx and windows? I would like to attempt cleaning it completely.

I tried already disabling all sceneries, dll and exe xml files, running virtually completely clean, except gauges for now, which are still enabled.

I started suspecting pmdg stuff as it also uses c++ libraries, but I simply still can't find the culprit.

Forget it. The problems seems much deeper than I thought at first. FSX was crashing in the startup menu.

Anyway, completely deleted, reinstalling  :'( :'( :'( :'(
