Immediate crash upon opening

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download BizHawk from 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bizhawk/files/BizHawk/BizHawk-1.9.1.zip/download
2. Unarchive from ZIP and put elsewhere on system.
3. Download and run the prereq installer from 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/bizhawk/files/Prerequisites/bizhawk_prereqs_v1.1
.zip/download
4. Open EmuHawk.exe.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected for the emulator to open up, but instead I get a crash:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I am using BizHawk 1.9.1 with Windows 7 (64 bit), and a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 
graphics card. I also tried using 1.9.0 and got the exact same problem. 

Please provide any additional information below.
The really strange thing is that I had no problems last time I used this, which 
was over 2 months ago.

Have you tried doing a clean install of BizHawk?  The old config file may be 
causing problems.

I deleted the old files and replaced them, still getting the same problem. I 
re-ran the prereq installer, too, and same thing happens.

I have the exact same Video Card and OS as you do, and I have no problem with 
1.9.0, 1.9.1 and newer SVN builds.

Are your video card drivers up to date?

Can you click on View Problem Details so we can see more details on what went 
wrong?

I also can't seem to update my drivers using GeForce Experience, as it too 
crashes immediately upon opening.

I think your missing files or your mixing old DLL files with the new EXE file.

Try this:
Make a new folder, extract all files from  
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/75355/BizHawk.zip
into that folder and see if EmuHawk runs then.  It should.

Sounds like you copied over an existing EmuHawk.exe, but did not overwrite the 
dll files.

Please extract the build I linked into a fresh folder

Sorry I didn't reply earlier. I updated my .NET framework and now it works fine.

Thank you for letting us know it's fixed and how to fix it.

Was it a Windows update you needed or a Newer version of .Net?

I downloaded a newer version of .NET, it wasn't with a Windows update.

Can you tell us which version you got/used?  That way we can make sure things 
are working properly for anyone else with this issue.

Original comment by hegyak on 9 Feb 2015 at 8:12

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I installed 4.5.1 of the .NET framework.

I am looking further into this issue.  It shouldn't be anything major.  
Probably a bad/corrupted .Net Framework install.
