SDL and MSVC++ 2005 Express
Author
I've been messing around with c++ for a while, just making little stuff and showing it to my friends. A few days ago I decided to check out SDL, and it's simplicity has made it pretty fun to use... But for some reason all of the programs I make with it wont run on any of my friend's computers. I've sent programs to them before, console programs, and opengl, and they've never had any problems. My friend sent me a screenshot of the error he gets, its just a dialogue box that pops up saying 'This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.' Also, I sent my friend sdl.DLL that the .exe needs, and he downloaded and ran vcredist_x86, still to no avail(idk why that would help since other programs compiled with vc++ have worked). Well, thats my situation, hopefully that makes sense to someone, any help at all is appreciated.
Thanks in advance for any help :)

Yeah, he's been working on something to optimize our progress on a project but whenever he sends it to me I get an error. I looked it up on the net and it said it's common when trying to run an Office 2003 program on Windows XP O_O!!
Some please help us D:

I changed from /MD to /MT and now i get these errors:
I did what it said and tried ignoring msvcrt.lib, and it gives these errors:

Ok I did what the link in that thread you posted said to do, and made used WIX to create an installer, and my friend ran it and it still didnt work... All other app's i've made have worked on others computers, just not after I started using SDL, is there anything their computer would need SDL related, other than sdl.DLL ?
No, try giving him "MSVCP71D.dll" and "MSVCR71D.dll". When you select Multi-threaded DLL, it does not statically link the C and C++ runtimes, so your program needs to link to them dynamically with these DLLs (I think[smile]).
If this was the case though, I would think his error message would say "Cannot find MSVCP71D.dll" or somthing.

My bad. It fixed my problem to include those, but I use MSVC 7.1 If this is your problem, your friend's error message will give the exact files missing.
