What do you mean by "load a disk"?

OK, now we're getting closer. The error shows
up when an Autodata CD is loaded.

(Note - the pcadvisor site is just USENET leeching, and you could find this
on Google Groups too.)

'Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error!'
http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/forum/hel...errors-368280/

Usually, the runtime library is a set (one or more) of DLLs
used in Visual Studio. Some developers are stupid enough
to not include the DLLs, or even the "vcredist" which
contains them. In other cases, maybe a patched set is
needed (as occasionally there is a security update
for them). I seem to remember the Microsoft Baseline
Security Analyzer told me to patch certain ones.

You can install them globally in the OS, but a
program can keep its own private (unpatched) ones
in the program directory.

Between the program and the DLLs, there is some
disagreement.

Not all errors like this, occur at the same offset,
but I figured in this case, I would get a match
in a search engine, and that's how I zeroed in on
"Autodata CD".

Posting the details is very important, and now it
would help to verify this is your problem. And
while you're at it, take a look at the folder containing
the Autodata EXE file that is trying to execute. You've
probably installed this somewhere (hopefully Program
Files area), and there will be an EXE plus a bunch of
DLLs.

This is how the DLLs get delivered to people who don't
have them. There are many different releases, and
a program wants a specific set. So you can't just
grab this one. This is only an example of one, and
may not be appropriate to your situation. The downloads
all tend to have the same name, so I have more than
one of these in my Downloads folder :-)

Some examples of names of the DLL files. But not really
an exhaustive set of names.

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8kche8ah.aspx

So that's sorta the orbit, but not an answer as such.

I wasn't able to find a definition for the error 217,
and only one thread had anything remotely close
to a solution.

"fixed it.. had to set the language to english"

In one other thread, it sorta looked like a locale
issue as well.

The search engine didn't find me any "tasty" articles
with technical stuff in it. And I don't wanna make
suggestions like "turn your PC off and on again". We
don't do that here :-)

The company that makes the software, doesn't look like
the type that "provides support to end users". They just
want to sell stuff.

Not looking good so far.

No, it does not imply this. The disk could be just fine.
There is something wrong with the Visual Studio DLLs.
The program you are running, has some problem when it
loaded "helper" DLLs from Visual Studio.

I think the idea is, there is a program running on your
PC already, that reads the CD for the data contents on it ?
Is that what is on the CD ? Or does the program run
directly off the CD ? Is the CD supposed to be "installed"
by the user, or does the program already live in
"Program Files" ?

Installing a vcredist into the OS, can sometimes fix this,
but I haven't a clue which ones this program is looking for.

I thought I knew what load a disk meant but what does "add" a disk
mean?

I think we are having our collective legs pulled. This "guy" makes
vague, nonsensical statements, and when asked for clarification, he
responds with even more nonsense. Smells like "troll" to me.
