Nuendo giving Visual C++ Runtime errors when loading with BFD

[Elbowgeek]

Hi all, hope I have the correct forum for asking this.

I've been trying to hook up with the BFD folks to sort this out, but I believe we have a more general problem, mainly to do with memory allocation.

It seems that installing BFD 1.5 breaks our Nuendo 3.2 installation, in which it fails during initialisation with a dialog box Saying:

Visual C++ Runtime Error
The application has terminated in an unusual way, etc....

If anyone has any insight to this I would most appreciate an answer. Right now I'm loading it as a Rewire application instead of a VSTi to see if that makes a difference.

Cheers

Dennis

Did you already update your BFD to the latest..?

i suspect that you have an older version of C++ run time on your machine.
or a newer version was inadvertently deleted.
its a *.dll. you can probably find the latest C++ run time off the net if you google.
ask the BFD support people the version of C++ needed and install it.
PS...google for microsoft visual C++ run time dll
youll prolly have to put it in the same dir as the other MS dll's.
how old is your pc ??

Thanks everyone for the replys. I'll seek out the latest runtimes now.

We're running the latest updates to 1.5, the beta H version.

Cheers

Oh and the PC is relatively new, a 3.0GHZ P4 with 1.5GB RAM. We're running XP sp2.

Another strange thing: the standalone application gives the same error and when I try to run the rewire launcher it does... nothing. Bizarre.

If it doesnt say 'runtime library error' it is not a library issue

A runtime error could be 1 of 10000 things.
It's 99% of the time a bug in the program itself like a stack overflow
an access violation or a null pointer which are 3 of the most common.

with c++, a runtime error means there was a problem at 'runtime'
when the program was executed not necessarily with a runtime library

It could be a runtime library but if you start overwriting library files
you could be in bigger trouble. You have to make sure the
files a registered properly.

I'm not sure there is a way to reinstall runtime. The only way to be sure is to reinstall sp2

so be careful
