Summary0001377: Error message upon launching FS2_open.exe
DescriptionWhen I open the launcher or the game I get this message. "This application has failed to start because OpenAL32.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." I didn't use the default location from the setup. I'll try to re-install then I'll let you know how it goes.

You just need to install OpenAL. You can find it here: http://www.openal.org/downloads.html

This isn't a bug though, so if you have trouble getting OpenAL to work then please do a search on hard-light.net forums as there are many threads that go through all of that stuff.
