Hi guys.. i'm hoping this is a real simple issue
I followed to wikiguide to configuring your client.
but i'm pretty sure i missed something. I play the retail version of ffxi but i still followed the instructions
patched, updated, checked files and copied the data file to the ffxi directory from the playonline one.
downloaded ffxi-boot, set the ip to the official darkstar play server, saved and booted the .exe file
came up with this message "ffxi-boot.exe - Unable To Locate Component"
This application has failed to start because MSVCR100.dll was not found. re-installing the application may fix this problem.
I also then tried the mXI boot and it came up with the same error message.
Any idea guys?
i'm sure i'm just being a total noob in this matter. but any help would be appreciated.
Shaku~

You need to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86)

Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 Redistributable Package for (x64)

or it might be the 2010 version

Re: Newbie help. unable to locate component
It should be the 2010 x86 version you are looking for. It is mentioned in the troubleshooting guide on the wiki.
Re: Newbie help. unable to locate component
Finished downloading the c++ packs, also updating to vista sp2 since I redid my computer the other day. It's rebooting and installing now, so give me a few and I'll let you know the outcome
