Hrm, tried that link still same error, trying vC++ sp1 now.

I searched pretty exhaustively, what keywords did you use to get something useful like this? That alone would help out a ton.

for what it’s worth, the system has no problems with anything else but aim and aim in other clients, I run a ton of other stuff no problem yet.

(my ghost imaged basic install saves me hours of installing on a reinstall)

Thanks! sp1 didn’t help either, but I’ll look in that direction, see what other fixes for vcc are available, at least it’s SOME direction 🙂
