error LNK2023

[horst_haas_a_itp_fzk]

We just bought Intel Visual Fortran Compiler 11.1. It is quite different from our previous Compaq Fortran Compiler. I just started it, with the installed template Main Program Code (Hello World). After I attempted to build, I got a fatal error message

Error 1 fatal error LNK2023: bad DLL or entry point 'msobj80.dll' LINK

What is wrong? May I ask your help?

It is said that I should copy msobj80.dll to 'Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDE'

Two problems.
(1) I find two msobj80.dll in my computer

msobj80.dll in C:ProgrammeMicrosoft Visual Studio 9.0VCBinamd64 86 KB 07.11.2007
msobj80.dll in C:ProgrammeGemeinsame DateirenMicrosoft SharedVSA9.0VsaEnv 71 KB 08.11.2007

Which one should I copy?

(2) I don't have folder 'Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDE' in my computer. But under
C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio
I have two folders, one is DF98, another is VC98.
What should I do?

You can install VS2005 Service Pack 1, and that should also take care of the problem. This is a Microsoft bug. Use the one in VsaEnv.

(2) The folder you found is from CVF. Are you on a 64 or 32-bit system? If 64-bit, look in Program Files (X86)Microsoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDE.

I have downloaded VS2005 Service Pack 1(VS80sp1-KB932232-X86-ENU.exe), but I could not install it. Error message!!
