Hi again, problem now sorted. It was my
fault as suspected.
When I installed XP Pro I did all the
service pack updates etc but went straight to .Net 4 which was a mistake. I was
under the impression that by installing the latest .Net framework that would
cover all the previous releases as well.
To correct this I uninstalled all the .Net
stuff I could. Not .Net 1.0 and relevant service packs as this installed with
the operating system. I then installed .Net 2.0, SP1, SP2 and so on which I
think is basically a constant upgrade but all in order and not jumping to the
last version first. I let windows update automatically run the updates using
the custom option to select only the updates relevant to the .Net level I had achieved
at that point. I also restarted the machine at every stage to be on the safe
side.
Once I had .Net 3.5 installed Therion
fired up, yahoo.
Also Pocket Topo will not run without .Net
2.0
With hindsight this now seems pretty obvious;
the moral of the story is “don’t rush though long installs”
do it once, do it right.
Thanks again,
Nick.

Will Not Start On New XP Install
We had
problems on a recent training course getting Therion installed on one XP
laptop. It turned out in that case that service pack 3 had not been installed.
So that is one thing to check.

Hi, I just re-installed XP Pro on a laptop, updated everything,
installed Therion and I get the following error.
This application has failed to start because the application configuration is
incorrect.Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
I'm running Therion on two other XP machines with no problems.I have looked
everywhere for an answer with no luck. What have I missed, any ideas.
Thanks,
