So I downloaded the flawlesswidescreen app, downloaded the 2010 c++ redistributable and tried to run it.. Crashes every time.

I'm running XP Sp3 fully updated, nothing cracked.. Retail game, retail XP, No idea why it won't run.

I'm not having any other issues but man I want to increase the FOV and drive the MIGHTYFOOT first person!!

Please help :D

Did you extract it to your desktop by any chance?
If you are running the app from your desktop in any way shape or form, it will always crash and I've already mentioned that in my topic.
It might also be a problem because you are running it from windowsxp.
WindowsXp is outdated as shit and even though at one point it was still better than windows7, at this point I am certain that windows7 is a much better choice than windowsXp.

Windows XP has never been better than any released build of Windows 7, ever. Anyway... you can run flawlessws.exe from your desktop in 7 if you set the compatibility options to report that it's Vista instead of 7. Who knows why that makes any difference at all.

Xp was better for me in the first 5 months from windows 7's release date because it just felt a better version of vista but not a perfect system as xpsp3 was for me..

I didn't like 7 too much I just liked it 50% more than I did vista and I hated vista with a passion :D
As a matter of fact I still hate some features from 7 to this day. Like the search that it uses vs the windows xp search that was much easier to use and wasn't a resource hog.
I don't like how you can't move the icons where ever you want inside a window and have to be constrained to a locked align to grid mode just for the sake of order in the window.
I am also not a very big fan of the huge status bar of the windows 7 window interface.
I have other things that annoy me that I could list here for at least 10 more minutes but this is not the point.
Windows 7 is better for running the new apps and that's what it matters.
