How to troubleshoot SxS VC80.ATL problems

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi,

My app is built with VS2008. It accesses sqlexpress 2005 database.
Sqlexpress depends on VC2005. After ~ 1.5 years of running the slqexpress
suddenly stopped starting up. It happened after the last reboot of the
production server.

I'm getting errors in the event log related to SxS vc2005 ATL and CRT.
Example: "Dependent Assembly Microsoft.vc80.ATL could not be found and Last
Error was The referenced assembly is not installed on your system.". I
re-installed vc2005 redist but it did not help. I could see corresponding
folders for CRT and ATL in Windows\SxS folder. The folders seemed to
contain correct DLLs. Repairing sql server did not help - it assumed that
everything is correctly installed.

Could someone please give me some ideas how to troubleshoot this?

Thanks,
Bogdan
