Installation of VS 2005 C++ runtime fails with followin error on Vista SP2
(virtual image):

"Error 1935. An error occurred during the installation of assembly
'Microsoft.VC80.CRT,publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b",type="win32",version="8.0.50727.762",processorArchitecture="x86"'.

assembly interface: IAssemblyCacheItem, function: Commit, component:

The c++ runtime is included in a merge module inside our own msi package.

The same error happens if I try to install vcredist_x86.exe. So the problem
is either in Vista's CBS or the c++ runtime merge modules.

Does anyone have any idea what could cause this? And is there any way to fix
it?

It seems that a workaround for this issue is to not install c++ VS 2005 SP1
(VC80) runtimes to Vista SP1 or greater.

CRT version in the merge modules provided with Vs2005 SP1 has version
8.0.50727.762

These seem to be the pre-installed CRTs in Vista:
Vista SP2 8.0.50727.4016
Vista SP1 8.0.50727.1434

So there is no point installing the VS2005 SP1 version in Vista SP1 or
newer, because applications that use dynamic linking to runtimes are anyway
redirected to use the newer versions that are pre-installed with the Vista
Service Packs. Am I right?

I think I also have to find out which versions of runtimes are pre-installed
with different XP Service Packs. So that we can install the VC80 runtimes
only when actually needed.

Apparently, a very similar error can appear when installing newer VC runtime
versions, too. For example, we encountered the following error:

'Microsoft.VC90.CRT,processorArchitecture="x86",version="9.0.30729.177",type="win32",publicKeyToken="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b"'.
Please refer to Help and Support for more information. HRESULT: 0x800736B3.

assembly interface: IAssemblyCacheItem, function: Commit, component:

{7A7D6B13-C853-3D3A-9481-655055655B36}

(This is a post-VS 2008 SP1 version of the runtime.)

In this case, the workaround of "not installing at all" is of course not
available.
