C++ bla, bla error

[Elysium]

Ok I see steam just updated and I decided to update my ATI card ATI Catalyst to 7.9 from 7.1 and now my game wont work as I get this stupid C++ error that says it must terminate in an unusual way etc... I tried looking through the 'Read me first' threads and verify my system etc.. but still wont work.

Any ideas what's going on?

Did you uninstall the old drivers before updating ?

Did you uninstall the old drivers before updating ?

Yes. Game works now because I rolled back to my old drivers.

I have this problem to

Might test update my drivers then, but the weird thing is that I didn't do anything and then it was just there.

Man this latest Steam update has fraked my Steam program. Anyone notice that when you load up the home page, it keeps re-freshing itself as it's loading images?

I can't use any of my Steam games after updating my drivers. I also can't seem to roll them back...ugh. Lucky I also have a dual boot Mac.

Hi,

I had got the same problem. The game was working fine with my 6.12 catalyst drivers (my graphic card is a Radeon 9500 Pro/ 128MB). Updating to 7.9 an the typical "Micorsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library" error appeared.

Even I have tried several hints given here in the forum to solve the problem, the error message did not disappear.

Installing back to 6.12 and the game ist working fine again.

Additional note:

I have just tried the 7.8 catalyst. The game ist working fine with them.

Maybe the Devs could give us an idea as to why the 7.9 version drivers aint working with RO?

The latest Catalyst driver definitely does not play nice with steam games such as RO.

When Source games are launched they open up for a second, then do a minimize animation without actually minimizing to the tray, the crash.

Red Orchestra opens up for a second and then spits out:

It is definitely related to the 7.9 drivers since I first noticed the problem after I installed them and since then, I've actually formatted my hard drive, installed them, and the error still occurs.

It effectively kills steam. Anyone know of a steam forum thread where I can complain about this?

Also, does anyone know where I can downloaded old versions of the Catalyst driver since I can't roll back?
