I infer from this that we're talking about Windows.

Ah, the joys of Windows programming.  One place to look is the system event 
logs.  Open the Event Viewer and you'll be able to find out from there what 
particularly it is looking for (and not finding.)  One reason for such an error 
is that you're not using the redistributable that matches your particular 
compiler.  When I had this issue, I was using the redistributable without SP1, 
but it turns out I needed to include the redistributable *with* SP1.  See 
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChToolsMSChain.html for lots 
more details.
