FamiTracker
At first I had trouble loading FamiTracker as it would not open and complain of a "side-by-side configuration error". My OS is Windows 7 SP1 64-bit.
Through some research I learned that this error is usually related to C++ runtime libraries. The libraries in question that mend the issue are the 32-bit Visual C++ 2005 32-bit SP1 runtimes. After installing this package I was able to run FamiTracker without issues.

vcredist_x86.exe is the file to download and install if any of you are planning on doing a fresh Windows 7 install. This *may* be the same fix for Windows 8 issues as well.
