Mark,
Are you statically or dynamically linking with the runtime libraries? I've
seen an error similar to this with the runtime dynamically linked when the
runtime is not installed on the target machine. By far the safest thing to do
is to statically link, i.e. use /MT rather than /MD.
Regards,
John
