after i install solidworks 2009 sp0, when i click the icon on desktop nothing happens, moreover when i try to open solidworks from its directory, I get this error message as follows;
This application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe tool for more detail.

another thing is my windows is x64 although solidworks version that I try to install is x32, would that be the reason of the problem?

the reason that I didnt install x64 version is, I dont have it, I was using x32 on my ex windows xp sp3 system

If you have current subscription you can download the x64 version.

Prereq is important too.
I don't know if it is possible to install Solidworks32 on a 64 system. May be not.
Install Solidworks 2009 x64 on Windows 7 x64 is possible. I managed to do so.

Do you have an Anti-Virus running?
Do you have legit copies of Win 7 and SW2009?
UAC should be disabled before installing SW.
RE: solidworks 2009, windows 7 side-by-side configuration error
No antivirus installed on the system
I have legal copies..
Its driving me crazy :) I have a project to make analysis on it till saturday, but I cant work on it and I dont want to go back to win xp just for this problem :S

Try reinstall vcredist_x64.exe and vcredist_x86.exe
\prereqs\VCRedist on the DVD
Both are required for 64bits system not only the vcredist_x64.exe
RE: solidworks 2009, windows 7 side-by-side configuration error
that was awesome, you figured it out! the key thing was it doesnt work when you try to set it up from microsoft links which I tried hundred of times, I managed it by searching in the dvd as rleoch said! (searching by VCRedist)
works like a charm now!
