Title: got an error
Post by: Loonyracing on July 10, 2014, 02:35:14 am

Sim Dash has worked flawlessly for months  but today I got this error
and it will not start up. I uninstalled and re-downloaded but it didn't fix it.

--Copy and pasted--

Configuration system failed to initialize
   at System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.PrepareConfigSystem()
   at System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.GetSection(String sectionName)
