Right, so I got around to setting up an XP VM. However, I can't get the VVVVVV .exe file to run, I instead get the error message: "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect." It's the same .exe file I used on Windows 7. I installed both Adobe Flash & DirectX on the VM. Any ideas what the problem might be?

Hey there! As a VVVVVV Speedrunner, I wanted to have a look into TASing the game. I have seen a few TASed runs of it (by Masterjun3 or Scepheo) and know that the files are in .wtf format. However, I couldn't get the game to run in Hourglass r81. The game shows up in the task manager, but doesn't open a window. It starts outside of Hourglass normally. Both VVVVVV and Hourglass are running on Windows XP compatibility. I tried changing a few settings (including Multithreading), though it didn't make a difference. Opening an already existing .wtf file didn't work either. Thanks in advance for your help, tzann
