That is an issue that has been covered and answered many times on this forum. The 64 bit runtimes *will not* fix that issue. The correct link that we provide for the runtimes is this one: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/de ... px?id=5582
It is a more up-to-date version of the runtimes and officially supports more versions of Windows.
