I recently started receiving the following error message when I use the DateTime module:

The application has failed to start because MSVCR90.dll was not found.

I am using ActiveState Perl 5.8.9 (build 827) on Windows Vista 64. There are 3 versions of MSVCR90.dll in c:\windows\winsxs. I tried copying the latest version to c:\windows\system32 but when I tried to register it with regsvr32 I received the following error message:

R6034 - An application has made an attempt to load the C runtime library incorrectly.

I also tried copying and registering MSVCR90.dll to c:\windows\sysWOW64 but got the same error message. Has anyone run into this before, and if so did you find a way to correct it?
TIA
