Hey Geelined....I have EXACTLY the same problem.....I downloaded the
mss32.dll and put it in the game folder, and in the system 32 folder,
as
some suggested. Now I get another error: "the procedure entry point
_AIL_set_speaker_configuration@xxxxxx ......." and so on......when I
search
this in google....I get various foriegn languages and no help...if you
have fixed yours...let me know....?! Thanks,



Did you EVER think that the error generated is correct?
Think about it: Under Vista x64, a "32bit dll" is OVIOUSLY "not a
64bit Program." You must use a 64bit dll or executable if you want to
"fix it".

Well, I guess so, but it doesnt explain why it wont start...the game
should be playable in both 32 and 64.....I install it on a 64
system....why would it call for 32 dll after the install? I wish I
knew....Where can I get a 64 bit DLL?? Same place as one can get a 32
DLL I imagine?
Thanks for the responses all.


In this case, you must turn to the Game manufacturer for succor, since
Microsoft is not in the business of porting 32bit games to 64bit OSes.

Think about it:
If one wants a 64bit version of Vista, he must obtain it from the
manufacturer itself, Microsoft.

So, if one wants to obtain a 64bit version of __________ (fill in the
name of a game), he must obtain it from the game manufacturer, since
Microsoft is not in the business of porting games designed for 32bit
versions of Windows to the 64bit version of Vista.

Make sense?
