I have created successfully a 4.0 CRM install and all runs fine. (Its on a
new clean virtual windows 2003 system, 32 bit)

I wanted to load the sample data so I needed to install the data migration
manager to do so. The install hangs on the fact that I not not have C++
runtime of min 8.x installed. But I do. I've installed the C++ 2005 and
2008 runtime distributions and they appear to have installed correctly. I
just installed a visual studio 2008 with C++ to try that. The data migration
installer still wants a C++ runtime installed.

Where does that installer think C++ should be installed to?

Is there any other way to properly install the sample data other than the
data migration manager. I'm stuck at this point after a few days of
trying...

Hi Rick,
Had you tried installing VCDebug redist available in DVD available under
Redist folder. Or try installing VC from

Please let me know in case after following the above steps you are still
getting the error.

Thanks & Regards,
Veera
