I am using Dev-C++ with Allegro and I keep getting this error...
This application had failed to start because MSVCR17.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
The program compiles fine but will not run. However when I open the same program from the source from my book the program compiles and runs fine. I really don't know what to do.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
The reason the original will not run is that it was linked against msvcr71.dll. The author was most likely using a MS compiler. If you can compile the code (implied: with Dev-C++) you won't have this dependency, at least not with the versions up to and including 4.9.9.2.

MSVCR71.DLL is that provided woth MS VC++.NET. It is not (yet) distributed with Windows installations like MSVCRT.DLL (the VC++ 6.0 runtime).

You could try:
http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?msvcr71
Put it in the folder with the programs .exe

Installing the .NET Framework 1.1 will fix this. It comes up in Windows Update or from http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/downloads/updates/default.aspx
