Pro Evolution 2009 1.4 patch problems

[TippeX]

i think installing the patches for the game probably wasn't important, i can't see them having changed the visual c runtimes

the runtimes all uses the side-by-side system (winsxs) which can get incredibly messy sometimes (like dll hell but a bit worse)

just make sure they're up to date, all windows updates done and so on, usually it can also be caused by a bad manifest on the exe.. if it happens using the original exe from the update then you might need to contact the publisher
