Orginal Title: "Microsoft .VC80.CRT type="win32". version="8.0.50727,6195", public Key Token="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b, processor Architecture'+x86'".

During installation of itunes using Windows 7 64-bit, I have this error come up every time during installation. 

"An Error occured during intstallation of Assembly "Microsoft .VC80.CRT type="win32". version="8.0.50727,6195", public Key Token="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b, processor Architecture'+x86'". 

 This is all followed by some more text and code HRESULT:0x80070005   

After all installed the icons appear but after trying to open it gives another message stating Apple Application Support needed.

I tried downloading Visual C ++ as suggested in previous answers but this wouldn't load.

Any help greatfully received. Thanks
