DLL error in startup?

I have been using Freelancer successfully since I bought it about 1 month ago. I have also been using fl mod manager with porches ship pack. After I disabled the mod, the game refused to run. It loads the three fmv's and displays the freelancer screenwhile it is loading, then it exits back to windows and tells me that an error was encountered in common.dll.
I have reinstalled the game, but it still continues! Is this a system error where a format is required? Or is it something else?

OkaY DOKEY if u take off the ship patch u must delete all saved games go to My documents/ freelancer/acct/ SP/saved games and delete everything then it should work, this happened to me and now my game works fine, but its lots of fun without mods!
