In responce to CHUCKS question,
The error that i get is,
Click on to browse then get in a box
microsoft visual C++ Runtime error!
program:E:\Program Files\OLYMPUS\OLYMPUS Master\OLYMPUS Master.exe.
abnormal programme termination

Hope that someone can help as getting very frustrated with the thing now and
also annoyed that can't even uninstall if there was a problem with
installation then could do again, but can't install again when still on there.
thanks Mistiblue
 
Usually this shows a mismatch between the runtime visual "C" library and the
application. You may have an older or newer runtime version installed, or
there is even a possibility that some sort of windows "patch" upset things.
You can download the visual "C" runtime from Microsoft.

Olympus Master is not a great loss if it comes to that. (Unless that's all
you have!)

To me this error indicates some sort of a problem/conflict with the C
runtime library. Since the needed C library is likely suppled/part of the
application, and you cannot reinstall the application, you may need to
talk/email Olympus. They may have a method of cleaning things out so that
the appl will reinstall. One thing that bothers me a bit is the location on
E:. Some poorly written applications will only work when installed on the C:
drive. "abnormal programme termination" seems to indicate something other
than US english settings are active.

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/154753/en-us May give you an idea as to the
default C++ librarys called by apps.
 
I had this same problem. I'm running Master 2 on Windows 7, and it worked great for a year, then all of a sudden, I started getting that runtime error. It wouldn't even uninstall. I even tried the free trial of Olympus Studio, and it would get a little over halfway installed, then have an error. I was stuck.

Luckily, Olympus customer support is awesome, and after 45 minutes on the phone, we got it working. Here's what I had to do:

Installed the proper package off of this page (for your language and processor) and restarted:
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/KB961894/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=2067

Then the same on this page, and restarted:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...B4-7A5E-4790-A7CF-9E139E6819C0&displaylang=en

And Voila! Worked. Really hope this helps everyone else.
 
Just wanted to thank you, dangerjones for posting the fix to this error! All too often do I come across dead-end forums that never post the fix or someone saying that they will post the results of the fix, etc...

You've done a brilliant job and fixed my OLYMPUS problem in an instant! All I wanted to do was uninstall the software off a notebook and with your answer I was able to do just that!

Thanks again!
