So this problem started occurring about a week ago. I haven't installed any new hardware, maybe a new program or two, but nothing of consequence. Now winamp (and some other programs report this too) doesn't start because the MSVCR90.dll file isn't found. I tried re-installing the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable and then run windows updated, but that didn't fix the solution. Then I read how I can run "sfc /scannow" and this will fix the issue. Well, sfc reports that it found corrupt files but cannot fix them. Another step was to do a system restore, but I don't have any on my machine, and I can't make any new system restore points in windows, not that that portion will help with this issue. Anyways, any insights on how to resolve these issues will be appreciated.
thanks,
Chris
