[SOLVED] Side-by-Side Error When Opening Hacks

Just a few days ago, I switched from a 64 bit Vista to 32 bit Vista. (Don't say "Why did you do that?")

So I completely cleaned my hard drive, which on the positive side got me a fairly large amount of space to use.

Bad news is, when I went to download my server tools, (Vac Chaos, Mod Loader) I run them as administrator and the error comes up.

This is what it says:

The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log for more detail.


I have gone through a lot of trouble to try and fix this.

What I've done so far:

• Installed the SP1 and SP2 Packages for Vista
• Installed latest DirectX

I don't know where to go now!

If anyone knows what I should do, whether it be C++ or something that I need to download or uninstall, please let me know.

Thanks for the support guys,
