Wildcard is that the error you're getting?  I thought you were getting a DXD initialization error?

Arlo, the only time I've ever seen that error is when AH is launched out of the AH directory.  Like if the executable was dragged to the desktop instead of a shortcut.  Another possibility would be a missing file in the AH directory.  Check your AH2 directory for the following files and their dates and sizes.  ACESHIGH.EXE, MODELS.RES, STDSHPS.RES, HTDLG.RES.

Arlo perhaps it was a typo from Pyro but in my AH2 folder i do not have a STDSHPS.RES file.

In my working AH2 the file is called STDSHAPE.RES created 10 december 2003 and modified 2nd April 2004 time 14:01:14.
File size is 62.8 mb (65,931,078 bytes)

Just something stupid...have you uninstalled, gone in and physically made sure the folder is deleted, and re installed fresh?

Im not sure if AH2 does this, but our nav software we make sometimes doesnt remove everything as the WISE uninstaller should...so when it tries to reinstall, it sees some of the old files and doesnt overwrite them since they are present.

Just thinking out loud

I get the same error message with my "pinned" start menu icon immediately after I automatically update or install the latest update for the game but then I can click that same icon that is "pinned" in my XP start menu and it works fine until the next update.

This is the only time it happens to me for AH2. So far I guess I am a lucky one in that I haven't had any real issues other than this one and can get right in and play when possible.

Next time I get that error message (in a few hours time) I will check the message itself and post that here.

Sorry, when I said to call us, I forgot to say not to bother with the report.  Thanks for doing that, but the best way to troubleshoot is just to give us a call.
