Reapply/Reinstall the loader properly

You click the executable, anticipation building, only to be met with a stark error dialogue:

• MSVCR80.dll / MSVCR90.dll → Install Visual C++ 2005, 2008, and 2010 Redistributables (x86 version) .
• KERNEL32.dll → If this fails, your Windows version is too new. Run in Windows 7 Compatibility Mode.

"The dynamic library rld.dll failed to load. Please check your system."

Step-by-Step Solutions to Fix the rld.dll Error

2. Go to the Compatibility tab.
3. Check Run this program in compatibility mode for: and select Windows 7 (or Windows XP Service Pack 3 if Windows 7 doesn't work).
4. Click Apply and try launching the game.
