You only have the static link option for MFC, but your app doesn't appear
to be using MFC at all. Under the project properties -> general, make sure
it is set to "Use Standard Windows Libraries". As you're not using ATL
either, make sure that is set to "Not Using ATL".

Rebuild and check your app's dependencies by using "Depends", which comes
with the Platform SDK. Run depends on your app on the machine that is not
working and the missing DLL(s) will be shown in red.
