Game won't load on some computers

Hey everyone, I'm in the home stretch with my little pet game. I've run into a little problem however. Some of my beta testers are getting this error message when they try to load the game:
"This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect."
More info:
I've been using Visual Studio 2005 to modify the game engine, if this helps. Embed manifest is on. A friend of mine made some changes to my Visual Studio project setup to optimize the game. This error is occurring on 30% of my beta testers machines. I think this may be tied to missing dlls, but I'm not quite sure...
Any help would be much appreciated!

see the 4th message. Essentially, your installer needs to include the merge module(s) that include files that are most likely not on their system AND ensure that the user has windows installer 3.1 or you need to do what he says in that post.
Hope that helps.
