Mids won't load sometimes
« on: December 21, 2011, 04:16:20 PM »
I am having some frustrating difficulty with my Mids. I cannot open builds on forums using the datalink, nor from builds that I download to my PC from same. I can copy/paste from a data chunk, view, and save it to my PC. I can view my saved builds, and export just fine. But it makes it tough to help others with their builds when I cannot open them.

I have uninstalledl Mids 1.952 from a clean uninstall using the program's uninstall feature and reinstalled after a reboot. I double-checked to make sure I have .NET 2, and installed .NET 4 as a just-in-case. The program is set to run in Administrator mode, and I am using Vista 32 bit Premium.

The error I get starts when Mids starts to load.

"There was an error reading the database. Attempt to download replacement?" Clicking 'No' aborts further load. After a 'Yes'...
"Enhancement database file isn't how it should be (Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow.) No Enhancements have been loaded." and "An error has occurred when loading the main forum. Object reference not set to an instance of an object." and  then a Windows debugging? error screen of "Unhandled exception has occurred in your application." with the following details

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
    <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

************************************
And it proceeds to a crappy looking version of the regular Mids screen which crashes/hangs when attempting to check for updates.

Thanks for your time and assistance. It means a lot. And Happy Holidays!

Try installing it to a different location than C:\Program Files?
