im not sure can i just go to xp s website and install a newer or updated version

You can uninstall "Microsoft .NET Framework" v1.1 and v2.0 in "Add/Remove Programs" and get them again via Windows Update.

Looks like there might be a problem with a filter or something. It first errors on an SQL call to the database. Perhaps you could zip and upload your GameEx.ini configuration file. Perhaps that might help.

This is a tough one since the error log doesn't really say what database it's working with at the time. My best guess is to uninstall, delete the GameEx directory (to get rid of all configuration files), then reinstall. When you set it up, try to keep it as stock as possible (don't install any emulators, leave the default theme, etc.).

I still think the most helpful thing would be the config file (C:\Program Files\GameEx\CONFIG\GameEx.ini by default).

I wonder if an anti-virus or firewall program is at fault. If you have any set up, try disabling it momentarily.

The log does say its an erroneous SQL argument, but having done some things with Access databases myself, I know it can be difficult sometimes to pinpoint the actual problem. I also have a suspicion it could be a question of rights. Are you logged into windows with an administrator account? If not, try that.

Just a couple of ideas that may be worth trying.

Maybe there's a strange character in the game's name when it looks it up in the database? Having a single quote in the name might cause an error like that.

In this case, you have to replace them with two eg. GoodName.Replace("'", "''")

I found this on a google search.

Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e14'

The SELECT statement includes a reserved word or an argument name that is misspelled or missing, or the punctuation is incorrect.

This can happen if you try and use syntax like SELECT TOP 10 ... WITH TIES, or other syntax from SQL Server that is not directly portable to Access.

When I tried to open the data.mdb in Access it complained about "Workgroup Administrator couldn't create the workgroup information file. Make sure you have specified a valid path and file name, that you have adequate permissions to create the file, and you have enough disk space on the destination drive. (-3100)"

And here is the fix:

regsvr32.exe C:\WINDOWS\system32\msjtes40.dll
