Error 0x80040702 Failure to load dll

[ddouglass]

Vista is a funny animal and it may be preventing this dll from loading in.
Try this first. Right click on the Microstudio installer file. Go to "Run as...." and set the file to run as administrator. Try installing. If this does not work go to next paragraph.
Try turning the UAC (User Account Control) off. Be sure you are logged in as an administrator. Then try installing.

I really appreciate your responses. Just so you know!!!

It's still not working. What gets me is that it worked fine when I first got this computer. Then it just quit working and now it won't even install. I was going to upgrade it today to the new version (it's the 2.113) and now I can't even get it to work to even do that. Grrrrr!... I didn't like Vista when I first got this computer and I'm still not a friend of it.

I ran a register edit program and it came back with several Install Shield problems. I hate fixing them though, cause last time I ran a program like that to fix stuff I totally screwed my computer up.

Part of the problem may be that the version you are trying to install is not a Vista compliant version. That is probably why it stopped working in the first place. You may need to get a full price version. Submit a Support ticket to MTU and see if they can upgrade your Upgrade purchase to a full version (it is only $20 more right now). Submit the ticket to Sales.

I just submitted a ticket. Problem with that is that I wanted to upgrade the whole suite and that is quit expensive if I go with a whole new suite.
