This application has failed to start because BOOST_PYTHON-VC71-MT-1_32.DLL was not found.

This is what pops up immediately when trying to launch FfH 33c. I can run BtS without the mod though... Tried to obvious stuff like rerunning the install and patches.

Any ideas?

UPDATE::::

"C:\Documents and Settings\$$$$$\Application Data\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4\Beyond the Sword\Civ4BeyondSword.exe"

Is the shortcut for the default BtS

"C:\Documents and Settings\$$$$$\Application Data\Firaxis Games\Sid Meier's Civilization 4 - Beyond the Sword\Civ4BeyondSword.exe" mod=\Fall from Heaven 2 033

Is for FfH. Notice the different directory structure. When I make the FfH one like the default one I get a new message"

"Mods\Fall from Heaven 2 033\ is an invalid mod directory, ignoring"

ONE MORE UPDATE::::

This is a fresh install of Civ4 and FfH. 2 032 was never on this pc so those old files are not there...

Thanks.

I would look in the Firaxis Games folder and see if that "Sid Meier's Civilization 4 - Beyond the Sword" folder exists. I am guessing it does and thus FfH is not installed in the same location as you have BtS installed in.
 
The "Sid Meier's Civilization 4 - Beyond the Sword" existed but only had FfH files in it.

I got it figured out... Ran Process Monitor and watched where it was sticking files and watched where BtS 3.17 was sticking files and somehow the registry key pointing to the installation folder got changed to c:\windows. So 3.17 got put in c:\windows. BtS origional was in the correct place and FfH went into the wacky location I pointed out above. Removed everything and deleted the registry entries and tried again. No idea how that happened considering I used the default install.

Thanks for the reply though.
