Sins - Rebellion - Windows 8.1 error?
« on: February 21, 2015, 06:23:28 AM »
Anyone else seen this error? Worth noting that im using a downloaded version as my CD has gone missing. I've seen some threads online about this being a Win 8.x error but can't find any solutions which work/

"The application was unable to start correctly (0x000007b). Click OK to close the application."

Be honest, didn't even know sins was available via CD.

When you say download, do you mean a "normal" download or via STEAM (which I thought was the only way to buy Rebellion honestly)?

Yeah available on CD: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sins-Solar-Empire-Rebellion-DVD/dp/B00C4O2V70

"normal" download - which is perfectly legal, if you have the the CD :)

A normal download via Steam though, right? I ask because the picture of the case on that Amazon page says "software requires Steam online activation".  Have you tried verifying local content through your Steam library?

Ok - I haven't installed steam since I got the laptop and have managed to 'pass by' the steam activation part on that page. Looks like i've found my problem! Downloading steam now!

Thanks!
