Hi, Mike

I had trouble installing csound with the Csound5.07-win32-d.exe 
installer on a desktop machine with an old XP operating system (a 
version of XP from 2002, I think, patched with SP2). When running 
csound  from a console, I got two WARNING messages saying that both 
fluidOpcodes.dll and rtpa.dll libraries could not be loaded.
Investigating the event observer log I saw that those events where 
marked with a 'Generate Activation Content failed' message.

This gave me an indication to search the web and I found this article :

It says that programs compiled with MSVC need some runtime components of 
Visual C++ Libraries to run properly. After running the vcredist_x86.exe 
file on my machine, both libraries were correctly loaded when running 
csound.

Then I found that the pyXXX opcodes were not installed, despite the fact 
that python2.5 was correctly installed on the machine. I compiled the 
py.dll library from the sources with mingw and I pasted it into the 
plugins64 directory. And voila everything run fine.

I hope this information can help and I thank you for the invaluable work 
you make building those windows installers.

Best regards

Francois Pinot
