In this tutorial i will show you how to sort out the annoying MSVCR71.dll error that many people seem to be getting regularly

First of all i would like to let you know i am running Windows NOT Mac, it is just a theme because i love the look of Mac

This tutorial will help you fix this error
If you have the above error then follow this tutorial, if not then do a forum search

First of all go to this link http://www.dll-files.com/pop.php?dll=msvcr71
And you will have this page
Click on download and open up the zip file that you get
It should have the following files in it
If it does not have these files in it then make sure you clicked the correct link

Now open Computer and go to C:/Windows/system
This folder may be empty or it may have some files in it, if it is empty then dont worry, many people think it is the wrong place because there is no files already in it, but i can assure you it IS the correct folder

Now drag the dll file that was in the zip file into the C:/Windows/system
There should now be a file called msvcr71.dll in the folder

Now restart Simba and see if you still get the error, you shouldnt do, but if you do then just post below and i will try to help you as fast as i can

Should add that 64-Bit users place it in the SysWOW64 folder.

This is needed, seen a lot of people mentioning the error, having it myself when first setting up Simba.

Are you sure its wise to download the dll from that website though ?

it doesnt go in the sysWOW64 folder, and whenever people ask i always tell them to put it in the system folder and it works perfectly fine, i use 64 bit and so do most people who have this problem

i am sure that site is safe, i have used that site for years for msvcr71.dll

Does it also work if you place it in the Simba directory? (Not the Simba/Plugins directory)

i dont know, i will try

EDIT: yes it does, i put it in C:/Simba

That seems like a more appropriate solution to me; as the DLL will only be used from Simba, and not from any other applications. :)

but i have had that error from other applications as well, so at least if it is there then if any other applications need it then it will be there already

Whenever I need dll files I always use the site shuttle is referring to. I have used it for a while now and have had 0 problems.

Kinda realllly new to all this stuff, but i followed this guide about the error and downloaded what you said to. But im still getting the error.

That is the correct solution to this problem. I do not recommend for anyone to download from sites like that.

Thanks. Works for meee.

had this problem last week setting up a friend's computer to auto. I wish I had known about this thread then. This might need to be stickied/ linked to by a set-up tutorial/wiki.

It's common sense, whenever you get an error like that, google it.

is there a work around for this? I don't have admin permissions

Thanks alot mate, just installed Simba on a new computer and got this error

Worked for me thanks a million this error was seriously pissing me off! thanks again <3

I'm now getting this error

The application or DLL C: \ Windows\system32\MSVCR100.dll is not a valid Windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette.

What do I do!?

Nevermind, just re-installed java

I get the error after all the script choosing, account adding. This is the error. The procedure entry point_clean_type_info_names_internal could not be located in the dynamic link library MSVCR100.dll

This fixed everything on my desktop. My work laptop also had an MSVCR100.dll that needed fix. I'm working on that right now.

Edit: I reinstalled Java, added MSVCR100.dll and no good. I uninstalled and clear all of the files for Simba and reinstalled everything. I added the missing .dll files and here is the error I'm getting.




I really am not sure what to do to fix this issue. I'll wait until you can advise me on it. I've tried reinstalling Java and Simba and since it worked perfectly on my desktop I'm not sure what the issue is here. Thoughts?

Edit: Finally got it! All I had to do was follow this. http://villavu.com/forum/showpost.php?p=851272&postcount=322

still not working for me :(

Or you could completely erase this guide and tell them to redownload java…………

From: user666
Or you could completely erase this guide and tell them to redownload java…………

No as Java may install the library in it's own directory. It does not add it's directory to the PATH.

Adding the Java directory to your PATH or copying the library from the Java directory will work.

At first I had this problem and this wonderful guide fixed it. After I restarted Simba I tried to start a script. After I clicked run and then save account info, an error popped up that said this:

The bitmap[14] does not exist.
Press OK to ignore and risk data corruption.
Press Cancel to kill the program.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

i love you…you're so smart.

worked thanks a lot <3!

I'm trying to do this, but after I download, and try to open the zip file, to see what is in it so I can drag it over to the system file, it won't let me unzip it and says I need to buy "winzip". what do I do :(?

Are you still getting the same error or a different one?

I'm still getting this error, I have tried everything!

Used this for a friend in the past!~

Thank you for posting what exactly you did and what errors you are still getting so we can help you fix the problem


Oh wait…

Okay I followed the tutorial and I added "msvcr71.dll" into C:\Windows\system (it was a blank folder with nothing in it) and I still get the error. Also I can't download Java because it say's I'm missing a DLL, but clearly it's in the folder. Any help?

The tutorial is actually incorrect.

If you are on Windows XP or Vista then it needs to go in C:\Windows\System32

i still get the error. i copied it in both system nd simba directry but i still get the error.

If you're 64 bit I found that putting it in syswow64 worked for me

What if the error is 100 rather then 71?

From: aarong
What if the error is 100 rather then 71?

Then you google/search for MSVCR100.dll instead. Not rocket science uh ;)

there is a copy of msvcr100.dll in c:\Documents and settings\"username"\jagexcache\jagexlauncher\bin

Seems to be microsoft original, untampered :norris:


EDIT:
I don't know where my msvcr71.dll went, but it is not in windows (including windows\system32), just in case some others hoped they would find it there (using xp here)

woot saved my ass thx
