Hi Paul,

MSVCR90.DLL is a requirement for many applications. (built with Microsoft Visual C++)

See Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=a5c84275-3b97-4ab7-a40d-3802b2af5fc2

I think MSVCR90.DLL is a dependency of pyGTK, your old pyGTK you where running probably had a dependency for an old version of the MS C Runtime, which would still be installed on your HD somewhere, but just not compatible with the new pyGTK.

It's required by Python (2.6, 2.7, 3.0, 3.1). Current pygtk, pygobject
and pycairo versions distributed on ftp.gnome.org are built with mingw,
thus require msvcrt.dll (which is distributed together with the os).

See if installing the MS runtime above fixes your problem.

There a great chance it will, but that might hide the source of his problem:
The fact that MSVCR90.DLL is not found is scary. The python installation
normally takes care of this for you (when needed) when you install python.
There is however one scenario where things might go wrong though:

- you do not have the "Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable" package,
version 9.0.21022.8 (required by python 2.6, 2.7, 3.0, 3.1) installed on
your system
- and you install the python interpreter and select "install for this user only"
- and you are testing the above with a different user account than the account
you used to install python.

Another option might be that some "incomplete" .exe.manifest file is
somehow used that points to a different c runtime version causing things to fail... py2exe users should be especially careful about this...

Fix the msvcr issue first, chances are the other 2 dll files will be solved
at the same time...

mvg,
Dieter
