Hi everyone~ I am a new comer, problem to install Mission planner in WinXP [fixed after install DirectX redist]

Dear All,I am a new comer, nice to meet you.

I DIY and fly Quadrotor and I use KK and MultiWii before with very good result.

BTW, GPS waypoint planning is not possible in KK and also no ready solution in MultiWii but this is what I want to do on my next project; finally I got the AIOP with ArduCopter.

However, I try lot of time (I install and re-install the .Net3.5+ even 4.0 also the VC dist) still cannot get the Mission planner run on my WinXP, anyone have same issue and who can help?

(It just pop out the console and shows tons of fatal error on IO modules and some C files....)

My feeling is Mission planner should work fine in Win7 but I still no plan to upgrade...

Thank you very much~

I can't help you with your XT problem.  I run win7 on all my computers.  While XP was a workhorse, and until then the best O/S that Microsoft labeled "Windows".  But Windows 7 is so much better than XP.  (And infinitely better than Vista).

I suspect that you are missing some C components (dll's) that are built into Windows 7.

Thank you so much!!

Right now the Mission planner work fine and smooth on my XP after install the DirectX redist.

The filename is "directx_Jun2010_redist.exe" and everything fine after install it.

The next step I will try to connect to the AIOP board and let see what happen.

make sure that you use netframe version 3.5, not the newer versions.

YES, I try both .NET 3.5+ and 4, 4.5 is for Win7 only

The main reason I cannot run is I missing the DirectX redist, everything work fine after install it.

Anyway, thank you very much for everyone input and hopefully this post also can help someone who facing same issue.
