   msvcr80d.dll missing from visual studio 2005
  I searched the forum and the solutions didn't work. I keep getting the error "This application has failed to start because MSVCR80D.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem". Copying the dll from visual studio folder did not work. I also tried setting the runtime library from "Multi-threaded Debug DLL" to "Multi-threaded" and it still does not work. Does anyone have any suggestion on how to fix this?   
  Are you getting this error message when startign VS? If so, why not take a shot and reinstall it? When you say you copied the dll from the VS folder ... copied it to where? What I mean is, where would you copy it from that isn't the place where it should be in the first place? Yep, I'd try reinstalling.   ;  Check out this thread:http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=389274&whichpage=1&#2611986
