This is a possible initialization problem.  If you installed XcomUtil
immediately after installing Xcom, before you ever entered combat for
the first time, some of the game directories may not have been
initialized.  Try running Xcom without RunXcomW, go into combat once,
then try it with RunXcomW.  If that doesn't work, contact me.
