We're sorry to hear that you're encountering problems installing VisualDSP++. Can you please let us know what version, or update, you're trying to install?

Can we please ask you to double check that the EXE/VDU (if it’s the base release it will be an EXE file but if you're installing an update it will be a VDU file) file that you have downloaded is the correct size as we have seen cases in the past where this particular problem has been caused by the EXE/VDU file has become corrupt or hasn’t downloaded fully. You can find the size of the base release EXE file next to the link on our website. The size of the update VDU file can be found by clicking on the link on our website and the size should be displayed under “Type”.

If the file that you’ve downloaded is the correct size but you’re still encountering problems then can you please ensure that both MSXML3.DLL and MSXML4.DLL are installed by ensuring that the files msxml3.dll msxml4.dll exist. You can find the msxml3.dll and msxml4.dll at the following location -

C:\WINDOWS\system32\

If they are not, can you please go to the Microsoft website to download and install them. You can find these files by typing “msxml3” or “msxml4” into the search facility on the Microsoft website.

The current web addresses for these files are:

Msxml4.dll:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=3144b72b-b4f2-46da-b4b6-c5d7485f2b42&DisplayLang=en

Msxml3.dll:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=28494391-052b-42ff-9674-f752bdca9582&displaylang=en

If they do exist, can you please check the permissions on the files. The 'Return code=105' message is usually returned if either of the files have been marked as read only. If you discover that these files are read only can you please right click on the file name, select Properties and UNCHECK the read only attribute. If this fails to solve your problem then you should carry out the two steps below –

Step 1
1. Open a DOS box and CD to "c:\WINNT\system32"
2. Type: regsvr32.exe msxml3.dll
3. Type: regsvr32.exe msxml4.dll
4. If everything is ok with these files, you should get a popup saying that registration of this file was a success after each file.

Now try installing VisualDSP++ again. If you receive a 0x80070005 error message when trying to register msxml3.dll then we would suggest that you read the following Microsoft article -
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932628

This article contains information on the reason for this error as well as a hotfix. Please note that if you wish to receive the hotfix then you need to contact Microsoft support at a cost of $59. However, we must stress that this hotfix isn’t essential and we can get you up and running without the hotfix.

Please also let us know if you receive a 0x80070005 error message when you try to register msxml4.dll as this can indicate that there might be something wrong with your registry.

Step 2
If that fails, try the following:
1. Check if there exists a msxml3.dll and/or msxml4.dll file c:\windows\system32\ on your system
2. If yes, please rename them to msxml3.dll_ and msxml4.dll_
Re-run the VisualDSP++ installation

With the files renamed, VisualDSP++ will check for msxml3.dll and msxml4.dll and will be unable to find them. This will cause VisualDSP++ to try and load these files onto the system and if successful VisualDSP++ will successfully install.

If your still encountering problems after trying all of the above we would recommend that you contact our private support channel. Can we please ask you to fill in our support form and include a link to the forum thread? You can find our support form here -

Please also take screenshots of the error, and make a copy of the installation log file as we may require these to investigate further. Your installation log file can be found here -
