Install problem: Missing MSVCR71.dll?

Has anyone seen this:

Install Civ4 on a CLEAN (freshly installed windows Vista O/S) and MSVCR71.DLL is missing.

The version of Civ4 I am installing is the web-download version from www.windowsmarketplace.com.

The installation seems to proceed fine, but when I click on the desktop shortcut I get an error message identifying this DLL as missing, and Civ just quits (crashes actually).

I've seen reports of Warlords running on Vista, and a friend runs Civ4 on Vista, so I currently suspect this particular setup package (rather than CIV4 itself) to be missing some runtime support files.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!
