I got this same error message on installing Nook for PC. I read other reviews and tried installing vcrun2008 via winetricks. This fixes the error message, and makes the program work. Everything appears to work so far once doing this. Not sure if downloading books works, yet.

There is a trick I discovered trying to install INTEL something or other APP...install vcrun6 and vbrun6 or you will get NSIS errors on install...this goes for nookStudy as well.There is nothing wrong with the download...

Install will fail without these libraries.

Using whatever wine 1.3 comes with Linux Mint.
Minor hiccups on buttons w/nook study as of last I used it under Ubuntu v10? and wine 1.2.

I usually buy books via web browser and pull them into the app, I have not tested purchase of books thru the app.Everything else seems to work ok. Integrates fabulously with Adobe Digital Editions.
