Crysis troubles

[Spithead051]

I'm trying to figure out a fix to the problem I am having. I've had Crysis on my computer for about a week. Patched to 1.2.1. And it would randomly freeze and require reboot and sometimes the Crysis.exe file would not appear in the Crysis game folder. Anyways, after yesterday I can not even run the game. Vista keep telling me the program crashed and that this file MSVCR80.dll is the problem. Has anyone else run into this problem? I've tried reinstalling the game and running the game after installing each patch and I always get the same error. Is this an individual game problem or a bad Vista install?

Have you tried lowering the settings in game to see if it makes a difference?

After reinstalling the game wouldn't even start

I ran a quick google on the file that is causing the problem.

Did crysis work fine originally? Did you install any recent programs?

The second page doesn't really give a solution but gives you an idea of what it is.

You should get on the crysis online forums and see if anyone else has had a similar problem. Hope you get it resolved soon.
