Each version of Visual Studio has separate requirements for C++ runtime
support (including ATL, MFC, CRT). VS 2003 (7.1) C++ uses the 7.1 versions,
atl71.dll, msvcr71.dll etc. VS 2005 requires the 9.0 versions, atl90.dll,
mfc90.dll etc.

So you'd need to get this installed if your C++ app is VS 2005 SP1:

Or use static binding to embed the support in your binary.
