No idea. Maybe you should ask someone with a working steam install to give you his FAF bin folder.

Thx a lot godfather!
I did reinstall the game from my DVD. It did not work at all. Then I deleted everything i could find with FAF and FA and again installed it via Steam (just FA) this time.
Now the game works if i start it via Steam. And something new and strange:
- in the FAF folder there are 2 main exes: ForgedAlliance.exe which wont work
- and SupremeCommander.exe which somehow works and starts the FA (Vanilla is not installed).
So could i somehow tell FAF to use the SupremeCommander.exe and not the other one which is not working. Perhaps that could save my problem...!?
