meta Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 I'm sure there's a simple reason I'm getting this error, here's my steps. 1. Brand new install of Windows 10 64, updated. (i5, 16G ram, basic nvidia card) 2. download GameEx Arcade edition, install. 3. receive a message that windows wants to install .Net 3.5 (includes 2) 4 after .net install completes I re attempt GameEx arcade. 5 install runs without error I start GameEx. 6 I see the wizard. when I advance to the "input settings" section I receive an Unhandled Exception. I have tried regular edition, uninstalling and reinstalling .net and gameex. again I'm sure theres something basic I am overlooking. Here's the content of the exception: See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box. ************** Exception Text ************** System.IO.FileNotFoundException: The specified module could not be found.

meta Posted December 24, 2017 Author Share Posted December 24, 2017 More info: windows 10 is 64 bit. versions of gameex tested are current version from 12/23/2017 I noticed that the input setting screen is missing entries. I can seem to navigate to the other settings options with no problem. any advice or information is greatly appreciated. thanks Meta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Would you mind redownloading and installing GameEx Arcade again? No need to uninstall the current. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 This should definitely be fixed in the current version. Im not at a pc right now but will check later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meta Posted December 24, 2017 Author Share Posted December 24, 2017 Not sure what I'm doing to cause this but yes for me it still occurs with the build I downloaded just 5 minutes ago. It does NOT occur on my laptop (dell xps13), not sure why this particular pc is giving me problems. Ive tried reinstalling windows reinstalling gameex a few times. This computer is in an arcade machine has been running gameex with a j-pac for a while, but I wanted to upgrade a bigger hard drive so I figured a freshly installed OS would be best. any work around ideas?

meta Posted December 27, 2017 Author Share Posted December 27, 2017 Ok so for my testing, when I tried to start a fresh vanilla install of win 10 64 and 7 64 on a new WD 1TB hdd I received that exception. oddly enough when I plug in my old hard drive (windows 10 64 ssd ) that's been running for years, I just boots up and no exception when I access input settings. call it fixed for now? I thought I couldn't live on my 64g os drive, but I can, I just moved some stuff around. Thanks for the support. Meta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I just had a look. It appears to be a missing dependency which is why it will work for some. I am on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 I suspect its directx related. You could try that MS directx 9 web installer which installs all the runtimes but we will try and pinpoint exactly what dependency is missing. I can duplicate the issue on a fresh install but its fine on another machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Here is a link to the directx9 web installer. Watch the Bing toolbar install. https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/download/details.aspx?id=35 I'm trying it right now and will post in a minute but we will find the exact dependency and add it to the installer. Cheers. Tom. UPDATE: That works and fixes it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
