SxS Error 52 when runing VC++ app on test system

I am using Visual Studio 2008 (Orcas), and have developed a very simple program. It executes fine on my dev box (Windows XP w/ VS2008). However, when I copy it to a test machine (Windows 2003 SP1), it fails to execute, with message (in cmd shell):

The system cannot execute the specified program.

The errors in the event viewer are:

Dependent Assembly Microsoft.VC90.CRT could not be found and Last Error was The referenced assembly is not installed on your system.


So I believe my question boils down to: How do I install the VC90 CRT on a machine? There is no redist package on my Orcas DVD or in the installed path.

Thank you.

You should find it in:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\SDK\v3.5\Bootstrapper\Packages\vcredist_x86

Yup, there it is.. Don't know why I didn't find it before.

Thank you!
