Error Running Greenfoot-Kinect-Server... MSVCP100.dll not found

I'm hoping someone can help me out on this one. I have followed the instructions to install the Greenfoot-Kinect-Server, which installed without any errors, however, when I launch the application it halts with the windows error "Greenfoot-Kinect-Server.exe failed to start because MSVCP100.dll was not found..." I am running XP media center SP3 Java 1.7.0_01 Greenfoot 2.1.2 Versions of Open NI Framework, Nite Framewook and Kinect OpenNI Driver that were downloaded today from the Greenfoot website. I am able to use the NiUserTracker to calibrate the Kinect sensor and can calibrate it to receive the stick figure, so I know the drivers are all working. I am able to start Greenfoot, load, compile and run the Kinect scenarios. The only issue is not being able to launch the Greenfoot-Kinect-Server itself. Any thoughts would be very much appreciated... I have tried to reboot and to reinstall the Greeenfoot-Kinect-Server but always end up with the same error. The only strange thing that I noticed, and I don't know if this is relevant at all, is that after I install the GKServer it just has a placeholder icon in the start menu (not the green foot). After I select it the first time, then the icon updates to the correct green foot icon. I'm out of ideas... Thanks for any help.

This one is my fault. I've now finally updated the install instructions to add the missing step, but in short: install this package from Microsoft and that should take care of the missing DLL. Some people have these DLLs already (which is why the problem went unnoticed for a while), but that link installs the DLLs for those that didn't.
