Yes, this denotes a problem while loading the DLL "dllgraphics.dll",
which normalyy should be in the lib/ or lib/stublibs subdirs of the
OCaml installation directory.

The error message is obscure but that's the one returned by Windows
itself.

And, no, you don't need VC++ installed for this to work.
