I was getting some error messages before but the game would still run fine apparently, but after installing update v4.0, the game won't even start. Help!

@bigmad this could be an issue with the DEP protection in Windows. Try the solution in this post:

I'm using Windows 7 btw, tried disabling DEP in command prompt, but the issue persist, maybe i should restart after disabling DEP?

We are now onto Update 5. not 4.
Are you using a laptop or tower?
What graphics card do you have in your machine?
Do you have GoG closed before XWAU installation.
Do you already have TFTC installed or just XWAU?

We really need as much info as possible to help.
The best thing to do is to make copy of your current XWAU/TFTC folder with a new name.

Reinstall XWA fresh. Just vanilla XWA. Run game. Then turn OFF steam, gog etc
Copy that XWA folder and call it say XWAU.
Install XWAU Mega Patch 2020 to the new XWAU folder. Not the original vanilla game.
DON'T install TFTC
Load a pilot, Cheater for example. Test game in flight.
Install XWAU Update 5 to the XWAU folder.
Test game.
Then go to Babu Frik and set basic resolutions and basic effect options only.
Then we can tell what went wrong where.

Backup pilot files to another folder too.

You said you were getting issues before so it sounds like something wasn't perfect anyway.
For Windows 7 you must have 64bit and all the Windows Updates possible I believe.
Chief XWAU Team annoying nitpicker.
