Well MSVCR80D.dll is the debug version of the Visual C 80 runtime, Aka
VS2005 so you are going to be in trouble there, i guess you have a
library from the auto download stuff that has a dependency on a 2005
version. The entire issue may be being caused by a missing DLL, but any
idea who pulled in those DLLs? what does the dependency walk show w.r.t.
this.

and where did DWMAPI.dll come from? that a vista dll, related to desktop
stuff, how odd.

I've had no trouble with VS2005 Express, well some documented trouble in
JIRA and recent posts ;-) and with a bit of googling 2005 Express is
still available and you can still register it with microsoft. But in
your case here i would say there is something more fundamental at play.
