After upgrading my PC, Real does not work
I upgraded my PC with a new motherboard (ASRock) and 5i processor and re-downloaded Real. now I get this flag on all my screens "The code execution cannot proceed because MFPlat.DLL was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem." Needless to say, I reinstalled it 4 times but still keep on getting the same message.
