Poked around my Win8-install for a bit, and tried uninstalling the C++ 2010-distributable packages that I had installed. Still no go. Then another thing struck me: Could this be an issue with .Net? Win8 has .Net 4.5 baked into it, and wouldn't install the .Net 4.0 client profiles. I know that Microsoft say that 4.5 is backwards-compatible, but I trust that about as far as I can throw Steve Ballmer.
