Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library error when trying to call a Mex file

Each time I try to call a Mex file (did not write/compile on my own), I get the Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library error. I downloaded and installed the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package. I am using Matlab R2013a (32bit) on a Win XP SP3 machine. The mex file is compiled for 32bit. Does anyone have any ideas how to solve this?

Thanks, Sven

You can use the DendencyWalker to find the required libraries. Perhaps you need the 2008 runtimes?
