TMPGEnc just wont work for me HELP

[Phreakster]

Hi, I have followed the directions to the letter and I still get errors when trying to access the.d2v file created with DVD2AVI. I DO have the DVD2AVI.vfp file in the same folder as TMPGEnc, I have tried EVERYTHING at least 10 times including ripping the DVD again which takes 40 minutes each time....What could I possibly be doing wrong ?
I am using WinXP on an Athlon 1.4Ghz machine with 512MB ram, I have plenty of HD space.....this is really frustrating. Thanks! for any help.

Be on the drastic size, redownload TMPGEnc+VFP+DVD2AVI, then DELETE your entire TMPGEnc folder! (Save your Templates) and then Unzip ALL the new downloads into the SAME folder.
Run the Installation Batch file of the VFP, and then re-create your D2V file.

PS: It has recenetly come to my attention that Smart Ripper 2.41 can also create D2V files, I haven't managed to try it myself though.
