It has been AGES since i last used bryce, but anyways, i upgrade my pc to win 7 ultimate 64 bit, installed bryce 7.1, and when i try to start bryce, i get the error message,
.
"c:/ program Files (x86)/DAZ 3d/Bryce7/Bryce.exe
.
the application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail."
.
just what the heck is this talking about? and how can i fix it?

    For Bryce 7 to work on my Win 7 PC I installed it to C: just C:, not into any of the standard program paths. The only issue I have is that one Display mode does not work 100% of the time.

    In summary, the 64-bit operating system ships with the 64-bit version of Visual C++, but 32-bit programs like Bryce need the 32-bit version as well.

    And as Jaderail said, it's advisable not to install to the Program Files / Program Files (x86) hierarchy, as Bryce requires content to be installed to the application folder.
