Ouch, on Vista ???

I couldn’t get PP2 to run on the OFFICIAL release on one of my machines, never mind the beta 🙂

Wipe it out and install XP if you want to get any work done.

Hey guys,so I’m having this exact same problem, except my OS is XP. I deleted the file as someone else suggested in this topic, however after attempting to open up Premiere Pro 2 again, the splash screen still disappeared at compilerquicktime.pm. So any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Discovered that aslfoundation .dll was missing, after a lot of searching on the web found this file but dont know how to associate the file back to PP2.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks Guys

I had a problem with a repaired XP and my PPro2 wouldn’t load up… I did everything to get it running again. It would hang in the splash screen when it hit the Quicktime drivers. I then realized after hours of wasted reinstalling that I hadn’t reinstalled Quicktime yet!

If your problem is at splash when it hits the QT installers/drivers:
reinstall QT.

Hope that helps. – Jon
