Default Re: Vista SP1 - Cannot Start

Hi there,

OK so I appreciate I'm probably missing something really obvious here, but the demo refuses to run on my machine (Vista 64 bit).

I installed as normal, then copied:

vcredist_x86.exe

and

xnafx20_redist.msi

into the installation directory and ran them.

Then copied the whole DirectX folder into the installation directory (so it appears next to the 'Content' directory) and then ran DXsetup.exe

All three installations seem to work ok - but the demo still fails - I get the 'WPP has stopped working' box.

What am I doing wrong??

Thx
RBG

I take it all back!

Re-booted my machine and it started first time.

IT is certainly a black art sometimes.
