Our setup runs vcredist_x86.exe with Parameter /qb to make it silent. This works on all of our test systems, but unfortunately the installation still shows a message on a customer computer.

Please look at the image below - does anyone guess or know the origin of this message? I couldn't find anything here and on Google, someone said that it happens for English Windows XP (which the customer has) but not on the German.

InnoSetup has full administrative rights and lauches vcredist_x86.exe version 9.0.21022.8 in its [Run] section. Our application is not written in VC, but used the GAUSS Run-Time Engine which is.

While InnoSetup's 'Finishing installation...' is shown, the message install.res.????.dll comes up
