ok:
Does anyone encounter the error where the installer just seems to be stuck in a loop? If so, HELP ME!
Any help and tips appreciated
3) Go to Visual C++ runtime update
4) download and install the vcredist_x86.exe on that page
Legion, could you stress in step 4 that the x86.exe is needed, even if on a WinXP 64bit OS? People seem to make this error over and over again.
I have a problem on XP64 SP2. As soon as i launch the ClientLoader, i get the message :
"This aplication could not start because the configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application could solve the problem." (translated from a french message)
When developping at work, i usually get that message when i deploy a new program on a computer that has not the Visual C++ runtime DLLs. But i don't think it's the case, since i have VisualC++ 2005 on this computer, and i even downloader the runtime DLLs of Visual C++ 2008 (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=A5C84275-3B97-4AB7-A40D-3802B2AF5FC2&displaylang=en)
Any ideas?
That's the first error (have you even read the opening post)?
Download C++ 2005 SP1

Hello Legion!
Internal error.
See DXError.log and DirectX.log in windows folder to identify the problem.
I followed the steps you posted about changing the version of direct x, but the ver number was already the same, and still wont install the web setup.
PLEASE HELP!
I'm running Windows vista SP1 with all the updates installed except SP2 wich i don't think is needed.
If you need more information please tell me what do you need. Thanks!
To those whom had encountered this error too.
(I read someone's instruction on EF, did it and it works.....but there's sorta some "side-effects")
1) Go to "Control Panels", "Add and Remove Programs"
2) Look for "Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable" and "Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x86 9.0.xxxxx.x" and uninstall them
3) Uninstall Entropia Universe Client
4) Reboot
5) Reinstall the Client and some "error" (Something to do with Microsoft Visual C++ files missing or something) will popup where there's an option given to reinstall it......do it and the client will start installing.
After all that, your client should run fine and will be able to go to login screen.
BUT there's some side-effects:
Go do a check on all of your other programs and see if they would run properly. For example, I'm using "Avira Antivir"........and it no longer runs....had to reinstall it to fix it.
Did a check for most of my other applications....seems to run okay but for "Nero Startsmart" I had an "Unable to create XML Parser Instance. Please reinstall .........."
Not sure if any other applications are affected though.
Hope it helps
Try this Dx update

What does those log files say?
Dont know what you did, but this fix surely did not affect anything here with me.
Especially Avira, which does not even use that packet.
Did not even have to reboot after the upgrade.
