Whenever I try to compile a flightplan in proflight 2000 I get an error message

Run-time error '5':
Invalid procedure call or argument

I am able to select my flight plan, choose an hour, set my altitude, callsign etc. Next I click compile, then continue and then ok. That's when this error pops up.
I thought there was a problem with my flight plan, so for testing purposes I selected one of the flight plans that used to compile fine. I get the same error message for these flight plans.

Any help is appreciated

If the message is coming from pf2000 I think you will have to reinstall

I completely reinstalled PFE and the voice pack, but I'm still getting this error message.

I've uninstalled the voice pack and PFE
Next I deleted all content in c:\program files (x86)\Aerosoft\PFE
I reinstalled PFE first, then I installed the voice pack.
I converted my flight plan to pf2000 format, opened pf2000, selected this flight plan, made sure everything was filled in like I usually do.

I made some screenshots

I've been using PFE for half a year or so without any problems before this.

Does this happen with all flight plans?

it happens with each and every flightplan.
Also the ones that I know used to work with pf2000 don't work any longer.

I'm not sure if it was related or not, but I reinstalled my graphics drivers since I had some problems with it.
Now tonight I decided to give pf another try, and magically it compiled my flight plan :)

These are the things I have done since I last tested this afternoon.
* Reinstalled microsoft visual c++ redistributable 2005 and 2008
* Removed my nvidia drivers and installed the latest drivers

I have no idea what else I've done. All games were working fine even before I reinstalled the drivers.

Hopefully this helps some people who are having the same problem
