Fatal Error Problems

Yesterday Darren, Ian and Johan helped me remove the uiautomation.dll file from my system 32 folder.

I am using Windows 7 64-bit, so theorectically there should be a folder inside my Windows directory called "syswow64" and in there should be another uiautomation.dll.

Removing the first file appears to have fixed the fatal errors navigating the menus, but FSX still crashes with the fatal error.

I have searched everywhere to find the folder "syswow64", but can't seem to find it on my machine.

Any ideas?

You have to take ownership of the files...

Give me a shout next time you're on TeamSpeak and I'll help you out...
