I have just gotten a new harddrive for my PC and I?ve been trying to run LuaC on it copied from my old harddrive along with the msvcr90d.dill file (copied to System32 folder) and the vcredist_x86 and vcsetup EXE files. However, my PC has a server connection error for when I try run the vcsetup exe file and won?t download any of the files in it. I have downloaded Visual Studio from vcredist_x86 but no new files show up on my computer and I tried running vcsetup multiple times with Visual Studio 2008 being installed and uninstalled in these attempts. Any advice?

Also, I still get the side by side error when I try to run LuaC with visual studio installed from the vcredist_x86 EXE file tho like I said, no files involving Visual Studio get added after I install it so I think something probably isn?t working on my computer.

Use this, this luac.exe doesn't require VS 2008.
