MSVCP80.dll is missing?

@tulipbc

What OS is this ? 

that file is part of Microsoft's Visual C++ packages

Windows 7

@tulipbc

If you go into add/remove programs , you should what Microsoft visual C++ is installed , now if you click on the listing there should be a modify button , use that and select repair and see if this helps initially

@tulipbc

If that doesnt help do a search of your drive and see if any listing appears for MSVCP80.dll

tell me where it is located

@tulipbc

I think that file belongs to 2005 C++ here  , the game uses 2008 or 2010 by memory so not sure why the error for that file at present

Thank, I'll try that. I did reinstall the game and I'm still getting the message. Let's hope this will work!

Yes, I actually redownloaded that c ++ 2005 that the file belongs to. I did a search for the file on my disk, and got 7 results. 3 of those are in other game folders, and the other 4 are in c:/windows/winsxs/x86_microsft.vc80.crt_ ect ect ect...

@tulipbc

If you want to try something , copy one of those into the following folder location

C:\Windows\SysWOW64

let me know if helps or not
