Well, this is the exact problem David Thompson was having when
he first tested OpenDX for Windows/Exceed.

This because some rouge software on your PC replaced the default
MSVCRT.DLL with its crapy msvcrt.dll.  Some lousey software installer
replace windows default dlls without checking version number and date,
this causes other applications wheich were linked with
msvcrt.dll (Mcirosoft run time library) to return dll initialization errors.

Your only best is to go to http://msdn.microsoft.com and search
their knowledge database on how to fix it.  Basically you would
need to get hold of the latest msvcrt.dll, msvcrit.dll and mfc4x.dll
and install them in windows/system32 directory.
