After installing the game and the patch (twice now) I get this message:
The program can't start because MSVCR100.dll is missing from your computer

The n it asks that I reinstall the game, which I have. Any help? Thanks in advance.

Just had the same problem.

You can fix this by copying the files msvcp100.dll and msvcr100.dll to
C:\GOG Games\The Rise of the Triad\Binaries\Win32

If you have firefox installed on your computer, you can find them in
C:\Progarm Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox

Just install the Visual C++ 2010 redistrib package: or [url=http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14632#]x64.

Alright, I finally got it running. Thanks a lot guys. Sorry this was not a problem/solution thread or else I would've marked the problem as being solved.
