Side by side error or config or client wont start at all
1) if on windows xp Go to Microsoft update. Install everything, meaning, all essential and optional updates. If it wants to reboot, let it reboot.
If on Vista go to windows update using the start menu, should be a "prog" in there
2) Repeat 1 untill all updates are installed (it can take a couple of minutes before new updates appear, so after a reboot wait 2-5minutes and check again)
3) Go to Visual C++ runtime update
4) download and install the vcredist_x86.exe on that page, EVEN if your on a 64bit os! it's the x86 you need.
5) Done
kudos to wody for this and editing and adding by me
If that doesnt work check this entire thread for a solution that could help

No Exe file to start the new VU?
Look in the bin32 folder
Direct X Errors
Go to http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...38-DB71-4C1B-BC6A-9B6652CD92A3&displaylang=en
Download that. If that doesnt help try the following.
But i made it work in my case with the following instructions.
(Please note that i CANT guarantee that it works and wont mess ur system upp even further)
Installer stuck in a loop
No current solution
