petran79 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Raine runs on desktop PC fine.Recently I decided to use Raine on the laptop as well. On the laptop I had used the older Neoraine versions and they do run fine. Hadnt upgraded the application ever since.But with new Raine I get a "Not a valid Win32 application" message, Same OS (Windows 7 64-bit) To be certain that laptop has not any issues, I tried it on a another PC with clean Windows 8 installed and got the same message. Is there any Microsoft library Raine needs to be present in order to run? Desktop obviously has it but I do not know which. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tux Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 When it's a missing dll you see a message with the name of the missing dll if I remember correctly.Try to google the exact message you are getting, if it's really a missing dll they should tell you how to get the missing dll name, but I doubt that's the cause here...

petran79 Posted December 5, 2015 Author Share Posted December 5, 2015 (edited) Just the "not a Win32 application" message appeared. I assumed a missing library was the issue, eg like VCAlso the raine32.exe icon was blank (default blue-gray color) instead of the Bubble Bobble sprite. Problem appeared two weeks ago and I hadnt tested it ever since. Now that I unzipped the file to a new Raine folder, icon appeared fine and Raine launched. Strange.Windows occasionally does those whims...I hadnt touched anything. Edited December 5, 2015 by petran79 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tux Posted December 5, 2015 Share Posted December 5, 2015 I'd say the most likely cause is a disk corruption and since it's a laptop maybe after some power failure... run a scandisk ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petran79 Posted December 5, 2015 Author Share Posted December 5, 2015 I will, thanks! Hence why I prefer to run the program on Linux... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
