Entry Point not found..

[hetric101]

After Installation I get an error when attempting to start the game.

Title of error: RelicCOH.exe - Entry Point Not Found

This procedure entry point ??1$basic_string@DU?$char_traits@D@s...2@@std@@QAE@XZ could not be located in the dynamic link library MSVCP80.dll.

Just to note this is retail, I was unable to find a forum for retail so I'm posting here. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Tried reinstalling?

Possibly a bad install. Also you are using old nvidia drivers. Upgrade to 91.47 forcewares. Give it a shot, it probably wont work, but you need to be on those drivers anyway.

Then reinstall the game. I would suggest a reboot afterwards as well even if it doesnt prompt you. At that point turn off all av, firewall (both third party and windows), and any other program that actively scans your system.

With those off run the install again.

(and btw you found the right forum, we have quite a few volunteer staff and members alike who assist with technical problems)

I did what was suggested and it did not seem to work. When I install the game it doesn't prompt me with anything. It simply says finishing isntallation and doesn't even create a shortcut on desktop. I'm starting to think my DvD drive is having trouble reading the CD. Is there anyway I can provide Relic with my install code and be isued a download, maybe via direct2drive. I can provide proof of purhcase.

Can you find MSVCP80.dll?

I think your install is buggered up. Is there an add/remove entry for the game in the windows control panel?

If not, delete the install directory and re-install it.

There may be a program (like an anti-virus program, or maybe even a virus) running that's conflicting with the installer. Try a diagnostic startup to see if you can cut down on the number of programs running.

I have a similar error. I tried to install updates before running the game, but they failed. I tried running the game, but got the same error except it listed the file Loaconfig.dll

I uninstalled and reinstalled but same message.

Emplehod:

In a NEW thread, post a screenshot of the error message, your dxdiag.txt and a log file from http://www.tomcoyote.org/hjt please.

Sorry, wasn't trying to hijack thread, just adding that I have similar problem, so it might be clue that it isn't unique.
