Unable to load ltmsg.dll

I installed Crossfire today, it patched fine and then upon me pressing the "START" button to launch the game, the patch box pops up and disappears, then this "HGW game watcher" box pops up, loads and then suddenly a box pops up saying "unable to load ltmsg.dll" - then like 2 minutes after an XTRAP box pops up indicating a crash of some sort.

These methods have failed to help:
1. Closing steam, poweriso, etc.

2. Disabling antivirus/firewall

3. Downloading ltmsg.dll and placing it in my system32 folder

4. Reinstalling, restarting my PC etc.

5. Using Ccleaner to analyze/clean my PC

- none of these things helped me in the slightest.

I'm on Windows Vista, around 2007-2008 edition, I do not have Windows 8 or 9, in fact I don't even use Explorer, I use Chrome.

Please help, me and my friend wish to play this game and we're both having problems.
