Here is my story.
I just started a job in Ohio and it is very dull sitting in my truck the majority of the day. I also had the urge to play FF12 and decided that is an excellent way to make my days go quicker. I have a decent laptop so I decided to see what I could get going in the way of emulators.
First I downloaded the PSCX2 and downloaded what I believed to be a ROM. I owned 3 FF12 discs, but they were 7 hours away. The PCSX2 was not easy to figure out and trying to open this "rom" was achieving nothing. I could not even get that far until I downloaded something called ISOs I think. In any event it pretty soon became clear I was getting nowhere without the disc which was a problem since not only did I not have the disc, but a laptop with no cd drive.
Then my fiance came to visit me and brought her laptop which has a cd drive and the game discs. Easy enough I guessed I would use her computer to pull whatever I needed off the disc, slap it on my external hard drive, slap it on my laptop and be all set with my PS3 controller already working.
First I wiped PSCX2 off my computer and decided to reinstall it because I had tinkered with the settings and wanted to make sure it was defaulted when I decided to set up with the disc this time. Then the wheels came off.
First I tried to open it and it told me MSVCP120 was needed and missing. I ran a dll fixer, but it could not search because it was not connected to the internet which is just not true. I managed after a LOT of effort to get a copy of the little file and put it into system, system 32, and one other file I was told and now I get an 0xc000007b error. Whatever that means. I have no idea where to go from here. I did not have this problem before but my system restore sticks at initializing. I waited 20 minutes for no change. I tried it on my fiance's and got the same dll missing error.
Can anything be done? If this is fixable what else do I need to do? Get a new computer? Am I wasting my time because with a cd is there no way to get what I need off there on a hard drive? What can I do? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just have no idea what to do. Surely one of you guys can figure it out because I cannot.
