I can't explain why vista may be the cause of it...between poor UAC and compatibility implmentation...there's a reason why Windows folder in vista is so big
You can try to uninstall all visual c++, dot net, and directx, as well as FSF client. Sometimes making a new user acct on Windows helps but this is just from what other ppl say.
CAUSE
This issue is typically caused by a conflict between the program and one or more of the files in the C++ runtime libraries. These libraries are part of the Windows operating system and are used, and potentially updated, by installing or updating several Microsoft or other third party products.
If you are experiencing this error when launching or installing the program, and if the program repair option does not resolve the issue, the most effective method to correct this error is to uninstall and reinstall any Microsoft Visual C++ installations currently available on your computer before proceeding with the installation.

Note: If you are running Windows XP or a 32-bit version of Windows Vista/7/8, it is only necessary to download the packages noted as "Redistributable Package (x86)."
