Just in case nobody more knowledgeable chimes in. Pd found the approrpiate file: Gem.dll, but it still didn't load it. This probably means that Gem.dll is dynamically linked to other libraries that can't be found. You might get a hint when opening Gem.dll in a tool like DependencyWalker or similar. It hopefully shows you which other dll is missing or not found.
thanks Roman. running DependencyWalker gives a lot of yellow warnings and a red one in the dep.tree.
and in the log window:
Error: At least one required implicit or forwarded dependency was not found. Error: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in an implicitly dependent module. Warning: At least one delay-load dependency module was not found. Warning: At least one module has an unresolved import due to a missing export function in a delay-load dependent module.
attached are 2 png's which show 2 items i think could be causing the problem: -msvcrt.dll which appears to generate one or both of the above mentioned errors. -msvcr71.dll; in pd/bin exists msvcr90.dll.
any hints how to proceed?
