      I installed XP a couple weeks ago... if you must know the whole story read this, but if not, skip down to the bold word 'the problem now'.

      WinMediaPlayer tried to update itself to version 11 and froze during install.
      I could do nothing with it... just froze there.
      I tried to task manager shut-it-down... nothing.
      Had to hard shut-down my machine.

      then Windows wouldn't boot... seems that WMP crashing while install had taken over my registry and locked it up... so I couldn't even boot.

      luckily I had an image saved of my install before WMP messed it up.

      after restoring my image, I had to re-install much, including SU and Pshop, everything I use every day....

      but things just weren't the same... something was weird.

      I used a registry cleaner to clean up 2 hundred something 'errors'.

      the problem now
      here's the error message I get when I open SU(v6Free) now.

      Error Loading File totd.rb
      undefined method `file_loaded' for main;Object
      

      I tried to simply uninstall and re-install SU, but it WILL NOT LET ME DO EITHER OF THESE THINGS no matter what I try! It gives me this error (see attached image)

      Anyone have any brilliant ideas what I can do?!

        Redirecting to /msvcr70.dll.html

        favicon

        (www.dll-files.com)

        Go get your missing .dll free.

        This should work just fine, however if not then you may need to do a low level format and total new installation.

        If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.

          thanks Solo πŸ˜‰
          instead, I just fixed it this way:
          I installed CADfather's menuset6

          now SU opens just fine. πŸ˜’
          now if he would provide a tutorial for me on how I install new plugins into his menu system from now on... πŸ˜† πŸŽ‰

            Oh well... Without any real contribution from my side, I still stick to MP 9 (although don't use it too much either) and never let it upgrade to anything higher...

            Gai...

              I think I isolated the issue... I had an ancient program that was made to create a backup image called EZRestore... it came with my MB. anyway... it was a piece of crap πŸ˜’ and as it ran out of memory (it did not have an option to add to the partition it had created) was messing up many proggies ability to access the registry properly.

              I got rid of the program and things are working much better.
