DISCLAIMER:
This software attempts to flash your Galaxy S device. The very nature of
flashing is dangerous. As with all flashing software, Heimdall has the
potential to damage (brick) your phone if not used carefully. If you're
concerned, don't use this software. Flashing ROMs onto your phone may also
void your warranty. I am not responsible for the result of your actions.
These instructions were written for Windows Vista / Server 2008 however the producedure
should be essentially the same for all supported versions of Windows (XP onwards).

The program can't start because MSVCP100.dll is missing from your
computer.
This means that you haven't installed the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010
