I know how to fix this on a 32 bit vista system, but would it be the same on a 64 bit machine?


"Component 'mswinsck.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid"

First extract mswinsck.ocx and msinet.ocx for your copy of xp 32 bit or vista 32 bit and copy and paste into Vista 64 bit these files do not ship with this operating system. My computer, Windows, Systems 32 this is where you put these files because they are not in Vista 64 bit. Then download and run Service Pack 6 for Visual Basic 6.0 Run- time Redistribution Pack (vbrun60sp6.exe) here is the web site http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7B9BA261-7A9C-43E7-9117-F673077FFB3C&displaylang=en

Next open a command line or cmd as Administrator and type regsvr32 /u /s mswinsck.ocx hit enter. Then the next file regsvr32 /u/s msinet.ocx hit enter done. Hope this helps folks that are trying to run lifetank on Vista 64 bit

This is what I did.

Worked like a charm.


Anyone who might need to download the .osx files can go here: http://www.ocxdump.com/ and search for them.


Thanks a bunch for the help!
