VCRedist problem

[marek1712]

I have some problems with this point: "This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem..". Well, it's written in the Readme that I should get latest version of Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable pack (which is currently SP1). Easy to say - harder to do. I've been searching through the Google to fix this and few people pinpointed, that VCRedist*.exe (it's package's name) will not be avaiable to download separately for some security-connected changes; therefore I'm not happy to download whole ~500MB SP1 package for my VS2005. Isn't there any possibility to rewrite this emu in an older version of Visual C++ (or publish somewhere this VCRedist package)?

If you read the readme carefully , i say to install the setup. I have included the VC++ SP1 runtimes there :).If you run the setup they will be automaticaly installed (ATL & CRT).

refraction - it doesn't matter. I have Windows XP SP2 and Vista (and both present such problem)
drkIIRziel - thanks. I have downloaded unpacked version because setup one didn't work for me (404 and such :D). Now I have downloaded setup version and it works. Thank you very much.

The NullDC installer wanted to download and install the .NET 2.0 framework on my WinXP SP2 machine.
Damn, I don't want .NET on my machine. Luckily the installer failed to download because my IE ist always in offline mode.

To get the missing librarys installed, i used vc2k5_sp1_x86.rar (http://forums.ngemu.com/1114874-post68.html) from drkIIRaziel's post.

This means the boot-strapper generated by the nullDC team is improperly configured.

TO TEAM: Check out the GenerateBootstrapper task, it rocks (GenerateBootstrapper Task (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms164294.aspx))

Considering the setup was made in 4 mins it woks quite well ;).I used default Visual Studio config for it.

There's no point in having setup.exe if it's bootstrapped to download components you don't need.
