FSX stuffed

[tim arnot]

Well, it looks like my FSX is stuffed. Again.

Last night it was working fine, and I flew an AH flight from Bristol to Cosford, with no trouble. Shut down cleanly at the end.

This evening, I start it up, get to the main screen ok, but as sook as I click on Fly Now... blam. It either goes black screen, or grey screen, or black with occasional flashes of desktop. I've tried deleting the fsx.cfg and loading the default flight, but it makes no difference. When I look in the event log, it says The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect.

All drivers are up to date.

Any ideas? I've barely recovered from the last big reinstall earlier this year, so I really don't want to go through all that aggro again!
