PSB 2007: Run-time error '-2147024770 (8007007e)'

Shaun -

For some reason, whenever I click 'Play" (from the game's menu: Register, Forums, Support, etc), I'm getting the following error message for PSB 2007:


---------------------------
PureSim
---------------------------
Run-time error '-2147024770 (8007007e)':

Automation error
The specified module could not be found.
---------------------------

I can't even play the game anymore - the game worked fine earlier today, then it didn't work at all - I wanted to download the game again and reinstall it, but it's no longer available - I thought I saved the file to reinstall it, but for some reason, I can't find it - any help here would be great - thanks!

Bump - didn't realize you were away vacation -

Hi, the only thing I can figure is that you installed/uninstalled something that corrupted a Windows DLL required by PureSim.

The best thing to try would be to reinstall the game. You can re-download your copy by going to www.findmyorder.com.

Shaun,

...that did the trick - didn't realize I could download it again after 30 days.

Thanks! [8D]

I'm getting the same error but only when I try to set up an association using historical players. Works fine with the fictional players. Re-downloading and installing did not help. I have the latest Direct X.

Are you sure you are getting the exact same error?

Hi Brew,

Can you take me through the exact steps you are going through that lead to this error? Thanks.

[brewskiman]

Sure. From Main Menu, select PLAY.
Select New Game.
Select "Real Major League Players - Career Mode".
Start replay in 1936, solo play
Uncheck "Use finances ..."
Rate players on 1-100 scale.
CONTINUE.
Select team -- NY Yankees
NEXT
Customize schedule -- 154 games (only change on this screen)
CONTINUE.
Error message appears. Click OK. Goes back to Main Menu.
