EqLaunch.exe failure, Missing MSVCP71.dll

[arcticangel]

I have re-installed like 4 items and i dont understand why im missing this file, iv done everything asked by the wiki server guide and the other "guide for clueless newbs" i don understand where im going wrong. I do however know that when i install the eqemu pack the ms-dos thing lasts for 3seconds then says error and before i can make out anything it shuts off. so when i hit run eqemu it says waiting for world to finish to start zone, and it waits for like a min or 2 then an error "eqlaunch.exe - Unable to Locate Component" pops up stating "This application has failed to start because MSVCP71.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem." iv asked other server owners and they havent heard of this, iv checked around the site and havent found it, and i cant download the file anywhere . what do i do?? im soooo confused. please help :(
