[Qgis-user] Problems installing QGIS 1.0.2 on Windows XP

[Mike Toews]

Gavin,

Try installing both VC 2005 and VC 2008 redistributable packages:

Also, I assume you have an x86 computer. If you have a 64 bit computer 
or something else, then there are different redistributable packages for 
those platforms. If so, the links for the IA64 and x64 packages are 
available on the x86 pages. (But even then, I'm not even sure if QGIS 
works with these systems.)
