I tried to install CRRedist2005_x86.msi in deployment machine but didnt work.
I dont find BootStrapper folder in either development machine or deployment machine as shown in
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\BootStrapper\Packages\CrystalReports\CRRedist2005_x86.msi

Is this causing the problem?
