Can anyone help me with Visual C++ runtime error? - "The application has terminated in an unusual way."

I had a problem with the VirusBurst and was up all night trying to fix it, which eventually, thankfully, I did. However upon reboot, I kept getting a CLI application error (Failed to initialise properly - 0xc0000135) which after some Googling, I found was a problem with the ATI Catalyst and needed an installation of .Net Framework so I decided to install V1.1. So far so good. Installed dotnetfx.exe quickly and easily. BUT (why does there *always* have to be a "but"? That would make a good question on its own methinks! lol) when I try to install the SP1 security fix, I keep getting:-





"Microsoft Visual Basic C++ Runtime error! - The application has requested the runtime to terminate in an unusual way."





I've been Googling and searching and reading for what seems like HOURS and I'm sure others must have had this problem so can anyone PLEASE advise me how I can solve this, either by posting the answer here or giving me a helpful link - or links?





Thanks a lot.

sound like your Visual C++ installed is corrupted try re-installing Visual C++.
Reply:reinstall it again.
Reply:The error messages is a bit odd, Visual Basic and C++ are seperate products. Is there not a number or can you provide the whole message.
