ATI HD Problem: Beta hotfix available - UPDATED 11/6

[Wyrd]

When I tried to run the new exe I recieved a message saying the program cant start because MSVCP71.dll is missing.

Sounds like you're missing some C++ runtimes. Search your computer for "msvcp71.dll" and "msvcr71.dll" and copy the files into your windows\system32 directory. If you can't find them, download and install these from Microsoft's site:
.NET framework 2.0
.NET framework 3.5
Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable
Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable
