XP or Vista? Make sure you have all Windows updates installed.
You are working in a 'legal' environment with licences, yes?

I tried to install v v 9 platinmum by downloading from the internet, but still I get the same errors. Today I downloaded and installed Microsoft visual c++2005 redistributible. The installation wizard can't seem to find it. When I show path to it, it doesn't reconize it. I copied all the error messages but cannot put it in this message.
